Prince of Tang Dynasty
Chapter 28 028
Last night, Li Shimin stayed with Concubine Yang.Knowing that Li Yu was ill, Li Shimin hurried out of the palace.After he left, Concubine Yang stayed up all night, waiting for Li Shimin to return to the palace, but he didn't come back all night.Concubine Yang guessed that Li Yu was seriously ill, so at dawn, she sent someone to inform Shu King Li Ke, asking him to visit Changsun's mansion before going to court today.
Shu Wang Li Ke met Prince Li Chengqian on the way, and he and Prince Li Chengqian came to Changsun Mansion together.
For Prince Li Chengqian, Li Ke, the king of Shu, looked down on him. He felt that Li Chengqian was inferior to him in everything, whether it was talent or temperament.
In the view of Li Ke, the king of Shu, Prince Li Chengqian's qualifications are mediocre, and his temper is a little indecisive, so he is not worthy of being the prince of a country.He also believed that this country was brought down by Li Shimin's hard work and the infamy of thousands of generations. As a prince, he should manage this hard-won country well and carry it forward, but Li Chengqian did not have this talent.
He felt that handing over the Tang Dynasty to Li Chengqian would only ruin Li Chengqian, so he refused to accept Li Chengqian as the crown prince, and had been trying to find a way to pull Li Chengqian from the crown prince.
Although Li Ke, the king of Shu, refused to accept Li Chengqian in political affairs, but in private, Li Ke, the king of Shu, didn't have much opinion on Li Chengqian, the eldest brother.Seeing Li Chengqian, he would call him "Big Brother".
Wei Wang Li Tai frowned when he saw Shu Wang Li Ke also came.Among their brothers, the person Wei Wang Li Tai feared the most was not Prince Li Chengqian, but Shu King Li Ke.
Compared with Prince Li Chengqian, Shu King Li Ke is more difficult to deal with because he is talented and courageous.The most important thing is that Li Shimin once praised Shu King Li Ke in public, saying that he is the son most like him.This made Wei Wang Li Tai always jealous of Shu King Li Ke.
Although King Wei Li Tai was wary of King Li Ke of Shu, he did not take action against Li Ke, King of Shu, because he knew that King Li Ke of Shu was also eyeing the prince.Wei Wang Li Tai did not intervene in the open and secret struggle between Shu Wang Li Ke and Prince Li Chengqian, just wanted to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian and Shu King Li Ke respectfully saluted Li Shimin successively, and then asked about Li Yu's situation with concern.
Knowing that Li Yu was fine, Crown Prince Li Chengqian and Shu King Li Ke both had expressions of rejoicing.
Although Li Ke, king of Shu, didn't have much contact with Li Yu, he liked Li Yu, his spooky little brother very much.He was really worried when he learned that Li Yu was ill early this morning.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Shimin took his sons back to the palace to go to court, otherwise he would be "taught" by Wei Zheng again if he went to court too late.
On the way back to the palace, King Wei Li Tai rode beside Prince Li Chengqian and asked, "Why did you come with Li Ke?"
Prince Li Chengqian said in a calm tone: "I met on the road."
"Really?" Wei Wang Li Tai didn't quite believe it.When Prince Li Chengqian and Shu King Li Ke came to the Changsun Mansion just now, they were talking and laughing, which made Wei Wang Li Tai think a lot.
Prince Li Chengqian didn't bother to explain Wei Wang Li Tai's doubts, and let Wei Wang Li Tai think about it.
For Wei Wang Li Tai, the last thing he wants to see is the alliance between Shu Wang Li Ke and Prince Li Chengqian, which is very detrimental to him.
Li Shimin and the others left, and Li Yu woke up on the back.To be precise, he woke up from hunger.
When Li Yu opened his eyes and woke up, he saw Empress Changsun sleeping next to him, and he was startled. He didn't understand why his mother was on his bed?Later, he remembered that he had a cold and a fever last night.
Did A Niang and Comrade Lao Li rush from the palace to Changsun's mansion last night and guard him all the time?
Li Yu saw that his mother was sleeping very deeply, she didn't wake up early like usual.Generally speaking, Empress Changsun has already woken up at this time, but today's Empress Changsun is still sleeping.Li Yu guessed that his mother must have kept him up all night last night, which made him feel sore.
Being hugged by Empress Changsun, Li Yu didn't dare to move, fearing that if he moved a little, his mother would be awakened.Although he was hungry, Li Yu still held back and didn't move.
Empress Changsun usually doesn't have the habit of sleeping in late, even if she didn't sleep last night, she only slept for two hours and woke up at the beginning of time.
As soon as she woke up, she went to look for Li Yu, and seeing her little son sleeping soundly in her arms, she couldn't help but chuckle.Then, she stretched out her hand and gently touched the forehead and face of her younger son. Seeing that the temperature was normal, she was completely relieved.
Empress Changsun just got up and was about to get out of bed when she saw her younger son who had been sleeping soundly woke up, "Did Aunt wake you up?"
Li Yu woke up once before, and then fell asleep again. When he just woke up, he was very confused. He blinked blankly, and softly called out: "Aunt!"
"Aniang is here, Xiao Yu'er, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Empress Changsun asked very gently.
Li Yu opened his mouth and yawned, then pouted and said pitifully, "Mother, I'm hungry, I want to eat."
When she heard her youngest son say that she was hungry, Empress Changsun felt more at ease, "Since you are hungry, get up and eat."
"Okay..." Li Yu got up obediently, yawned with his mouth wide open, and stretched indistinctly.
Empress Changsun had already got out of bed and got dressed, and then picked up Li Yu's clothes from the hanger beside her, "Come, get dressed."
Li Yu stood up and stood on the bed, opened his hands like Li Shimin, and smiled coquettishly at Empress Changsun: "Aniang, help me dress."
For the youngest son's acting like a baby, Empress Changsun was very happy to accept it, "Okay, Auntie will wear it for you."
After Empress Changsun finished dressing Li Yu, he kissed his aunt's face forcefully, "Thank you aunt, aunt is the best, I like aunt most."
Empress Changsun listened to her youngest son's flattery, pinched his little mouth amusedly and dotingly, "Where did you learn it, kisses that make me drool?" After speaking, she deliberately raised her hand to wipe his mouth. Wipe the place where Li Yu kissed just now.
"Aniang, I love you, that's why I kiss you." Li Yu tilted his head and said with a smile, "Don't those countries in the Western Regions have the etiquette of kissing on the cheek?"
"Yes, why didn't I know?" Empress Changsun looked suspicious, "Where did you know?"
Li Yu's eyes dodged, "It seems to be read in some book."
"Which book?"
Li Yu straightened his face, and his tone was very serious: "Aniang, it doesn't matter which book you read it in. The important thing is that kissing on the face means being close."
Empress Changsun heard her youngest son's unreasonable words, but she couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, aunt, I know, but you can't kiss casually about face kisses, especially young girls."
As soon as Li Yu heard this, he immediately pouted his mouth, "Aniang, I don't kiss any little girls."
"A little girl from a relative's family is indecent, do you know that?" Empress Changsun reached out and touched the pale pink mole between the eyebrows of her younger son, "As a boy, you can't treat girls casually."
Li Yu nodded in resignation, and said obediently, "Aniang, I understand!"
Empress Changsun reached out and touched her youngest son's head, and praised: "Little Yu'er is so good!"
"Aniang, how did you and Aye know that I was sick?"
"Your eldest sister suddenly entered the palace in the middle of the night last night, and went to the Imperial Medical Office to find Imperial Physician Ning. You and I, Aye, both guessed that you were sick." The eldest grandson empress nodded again on the forehead of her younger son, "You made me sick last night. And you aye scared."
Thinking of Aye and Aniang rushing over from the palace when they found out that he was sick last night, and guarding him all night, Li Yu was moved and at the same time very uncomfortable, "Aniang, I'm sorry, I let you I'm worried, I will definitely pay attention in the future, and don't let myself get sick again." He just had a slight cold and fever, but it frightened everyone around him and made everyone worry about him. It really is... It seems that last year he The serious illness scared A Niang and the others out of their hearts.
"Okay, Mommy believes you." Empress Changsun raised her hand and patted her younger son's buttocks, "Aren't you hungry, get out of bed and wash up."
"Yes, Ma'am!"
Knowing that Empress Changsun and Li Yu woke up, Princess Changle and the others came over, and seeing that Li Yu was in good spirits and complexion, they felt relieved.
Li Yu was hungry and ate breakfast with a big appetite.
Mrs. Changsun saw that Li Yu could eat so much, so she said to Empress Changsun: "Empress, it seems that His Royal Highness King Rui is really fine."
"Well, it's really all right." In the past, every time the youngest son got sick, he had to take care of him for a long time before he recovered.This time, it was fine overnight, and it seemed that it was really all right.
"Empress, His Royal Highness King Rui will be blessed." Madam Changsun wanted to say that Li Yu must be blessed if he survives a catastrophe.
"I don't ask him to have any great blessings, I just ask him to grow up healthy and healthy in this life, and live in peace for the rest of his life."
"Yes, His Highness King Rui will definitely grow up healthy and safe."
Li Zhi sat next to Li Yu, holding food for him with chopsticks.
Li Yu's mouth was full, and his cheeks were bulging like a little squirrel.
Li Zhi saw that Li Yu was eating happily as usual, and smiled very happily.
After Li Yu finished eating, he deliberately stared at Li Zhi: "Ninth brother, you are feeding me like a pig."
"Pig?" Li Zhi heard the word "pig" for the first time, his little face was full of doubts, "Xiao Yuer, what is a pig?"
"Ah?" Li Yu was startled by Li Zhi's words, and stared at his ninth brother with wide eyes in disbelief, "Ninth brother, you don't know what a pig is?"
"I don't know." Li Zhi shook his head, "I've never heard of it."
"Impossible, it's impossible for you not to have heard of pigs..." Li Yu suddenly thought of something when he said this. He has been in the Tang Dynasty for a year, and it seems that he has never eaten pork.During the first half of the year, he was in poor health and could not eat many things, so he did not pay attention to pork.In the second half of the year, he finally didn't have to be jealous, but he disliked that the meals made by the imperial chef of the Shangshi Bureau were not only not delicious, but also had a small variety, so he was busy getting some delicacies from later generations, and ended up messing around. The pork was forgotten.
"Ninth brother, you really don't know about pigs?" Li Yu thought to himself that this is impossible, pigs have existed since ancient times, how could it be possible that there were no pigs in the Tang Dynasty.
Li Zhi nodded: "I don't know."
"A pig looks like this..." Li Yu described the appearance of a pig to Li Zhi.
After he finished speaking, Li Zhi showed a dazed expression, "Little Yu'er, the pig you're talking about is a pig."
"That's right, it's a pig." He forgot that in ancient times, a pig was not called a pig, but a pig.
"I haven't seen a pig." Li Zhi has only seen a pig in books, but he has never seen a pig in real life.
Li Yu asked strangely: "Are there no pigs in the palace?"
Li Zhi shook his head: "I don't know." He didn't know if there were pigs in the palace. "However, hogs seem to be rare."
"Not often, aren't there many pigs?" The name pig is really awkward, it's better to call it pig.
Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "It seems not many."
"Strange, aren't pigs domestic animals? Why are they so rare..." Li Yu suddenly thought of something, as if he had never seen pork in this year.Thinking back carefully, the meat they ate in the palace was basically chicken, duck, goose, fish, mutton and the like. "Brother Jiu, don't people in Tang Dynasty eat pork?"
"pork?"
"It's pig meat." The pronunciation of the word pig is really...
Li Zhi widened his eyes and looked at Li Yu in surprise: "Little fish, pigs are so dirty, how can they eat them?!"
Seeing Li Zhi's unbelievably terrified expression, Li Yu couldn't help being stunned.According to Brother Jiu's words, people in Tang Dynasty really don't eat pork. The reason is because of pig's dirty?
Pigs are quite dirty, but pork is so delicious that Datang people actually dislike it. This is really... No wonder he has never seen pork on the dinner table in the year since he came to Datang!
Seeing Li Yu's dazed look, Li Zhi couldn't help but feel worried. He quickly reached out and patted his younger brother's shoulder lightly, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Yu'er, what's wrong with you, are you feeling well?"
Li Yu was called back to his thoughts by Li Zhi, turned his head to see his ninth brother looking at him worriedly, and quickly smiled at his ninth brother comfortingly: "Ninth brother, I'm fine."
Li Zhi was worried, and asked again: "Xiao Yu'er, are you really alright?"
"I'm really fine, I'm just too surprised." Li Yuyuan thought that people have eaten pork since ancient times, but he didn't expect that it was not like this.
"Surprised at what?"
"Surprised that no one eats pork." Li Yu saw Li Zhi's disgusted expression just after he finished speaking, and quickly raised his hand to stop his next words, "Don't say pigs are dirty, but pork is delicious, and you will know it in the future." When it came to pork, Li Yu suddenly wanted to eat braised pork.The thought of braised pork in soy sauce made his mouth water. "No, I'm going to find the pig."
"Ah?" Li Zhi was startled by Li Yu's last words, "Are you going to find pig?"
"Brother Jiu, after you eat braised pork, you will know that pork is the most delicious meat in the world." Li Yu's mind is full of braised pork, stir-fried pork, pork belly barbecue, pork ribs, stir-fried pork intestine..." Ninth brother, you trust me."
Li Zhi has always trusted Li Yu very much, and he trusted him blindly. Hearing what Li Yu said, he nodded subconsciously: "Okay, I believe you." Xiao Yu'er is the best at eating, Xiao Yu'er said Pork is delicious, so it must be delicious.
"I don't know if there are pigs in the palace?" Li Yu thought about returning to the palace in a few days, so he went to the Food Bureau to ask if there were pigs in the palace.
"When we get back to the palace, let's go and ask." Li Zhi took a mutton bun for Li Yu, "Eat more."
Li Yu looked at the buns in the bowl, the chopsticks in your hand, picked up the buns and gently broke the two halves, took half of the buns and stuffed them into Li Zhi's mouth, "Ninth brother, you eat too."
With half a bun in his mouth, Li Zhi blinked in a daze, and smiled after a while.
Empress Changsun happened to see this scene, and her heart softened involuntarily.
After Li Yu finished his breakfast, Zhang Sunjing and the others came to visit Li Yu one after another after school. Seeing Li Yu alive and kicking like yesterday, they were overjoyed.
After a while, Li Shimin, Prince Li Chengqian, Wei Wang Li Tai, Shu King Li Ke, and several other princes also came to the Changsun Mansion.
Seeing Li Shimin, Li Yu happily ran towards him, still yelling sweetly: "Aye!"
Li Shimin looked at his younger son who was running towards him, he couldn't help but squat down, and opened his hands to catch Li Yu who rushed into his arms.
Li Yu stretched out his arms to hug Li Shimin's neck, rubbed his soft chubby face against Li Shimin's bearded face, and shouted happily, "Aye! Aye! Aye!"
Li Shimin hugged his younger son and stood up, letting him sit on his arm, then he lowered his head and looked at his face carefully.Although the youngest son's face was still a little pale, he was in good spirits, especially his pair of bright eyes.
Seeing that his youngest son was as energetic as before, Li Shimin was completely relieved. He looked at his youngest son with loving eyes, "Okay, is there any discomfort?"
"No, I feel very good now." Li Yu raised his hand and patted his small chest lightly, "There is nothing uncomfortable, really!" After finishing speaking, he added, "I just can't be beaten to death." Xiaoqiang, the vitality is particularly tenacious!"
Seeing his youngest son recovering his usual quick-wittedness, Li Shimin's eyes were full of kindness. He stretched out his finger and tapped the pale pink mole between his eyebrows, "Who is Xiaoqiang?"
"It's just a kind of bug. Its vitality is particularly tenacious..." Before Li Yu finished speaking, his face was pinched by Li Shimin.
"No one would say that he is a bug." Li Shimin pinched his small fleshy face again, and said with a joking smile, "I see you as a monkey."
Crown Prince Li Chengqian and the others looked at the intimate interaction between Li Shimin and Li Yu, each with subtle expressions, and even a little jealous in their hearts.Because, they had never been treated so intimately by their father when they were young.
"Brother Prince, you are here too." Li Yu lay on Li Shimin's shoulder, raised his small hand and waved to Prince Li Chengqian and the others, "Are you here to see me?"
"Yes, we were very worried when we learned that you were sick." Prince Li Chengqian said with a smile, "You scared us."
"I'm sorry to make you worry." Li Yu smiled gratefully at Prince Li Chengqian and the others, "Brother Prince, thank you for coming to see me."
"Thank you, you are our younger brother." Prince Li Chengqian suddenly became serious when he said this, "However, you have to be careful in the future, don't get sick again."
Li Yu raised his hand to his temple, made a nondescript military salute, and smiled at Prince Li Chengqian in a playful manner: "Obey, brother Prince!"
Prince Li Chengqian was amused by Li Yu's appearance, but he deliberately said with a straight face: "If you don't obey orders, I will punish you."
"Is this an order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Li Yuchong blinked at Prince Li Chengqian, and then looked serious, "If it is an order from His Highness the Crown Prince, my younger brother must obey it." He deliberately placed the words "His Royal Highness" very seriously. .
Wei Wang Li Tai frowned slightly when he heard Li Yu's words.
Li Ke, King of Shu, didn't react when he heard this, and still kept a faint smile on his face.
The Crown Prince Li Chengqian didn't notice this. Hearing what Li Yu said, he deliberately assumed the posture of a prince, "Yes, it's His Royal Highness's order, so you must obey it!"
Li Yu bowed to Prince Li Chengqian with his hands clasped in fists, with a serious expression on his face: "Yes, Your Highness the Prince!"
"Hahahahaha..." Prince Li Chengqian and his brothers burst out laughing at Li Yu's appearance.
When Empress Changsun saw the scene of Li Shimin and his father and son laughing together, her heart felt sour and her eyes were slightly red.
Li Shimin and the others had lunch at Changsun Mansion.During the meal, Li Yu kept playing tricks to make Li Shimin and the others laugh non-stop. The meal was very warm.
After lunch, when Li Yu saw that Li Shimin and the others wanted to take him back to the palace, he immediately became unhappy.
"I don't want to go back to the palace." He still had a lot of things to do.
"You haven't played well yet?" Li Shimin had already guessed that the youngest son would not return to the palace honestly.
"No." Li Yu thought about the start of Cuju practice, Changsun Jing and the others were not yet fully familiar with the rules of Cuju competition.Also, he was going to find the pigs. "I'm going to play for a while."
Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun, "Look at me, I think he's playing crazy, and he doesn't even want to go back to the palace now."
"Aye, but you said it yourself, let me play with uncle for a while longer." Li Yu curled his lips and said with a little disgust, "How can you keep your word?"
"Uh..." Li Shimin was blocked by his younger son's words, and couldn't find anything to refute for a while.
Seeing Li Shimin choked and speechless, Empress Changsun almost couldn't help laughing, "Xiao Yu'er, how long do you plan to play?"
"Aniang, I'm done playing, so I'll go back to the palace." He had to wait for Changsun Jing and the others to thoroughly familiarize themselves with the rules of the Cuju game before going back.
"Little Yu'er, you are still sick. If you don't go back to the palace, Auntie will be worried." Empress Changsun said softly, "After you recover from illness, Auntie will let you come to play with uncle."
"Aniang, I've recovered from my illness." Li Yu said and jumped up and down in front of Empress Changsun, "Look at me, I'm alive and kicking."
Empress Changsun didn't say anything else, she just looked at Li Yu quietly.
Li Yu was stunned by Empress Changsun's majestic eyes, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm really well..."
"Physician Ning said that you need to be recuperated. You should go back to the palace with Auntie obediently. After you are recuperated, Auntie will let you go out of the palace to play." Empress Changsun's tone could not be refused.
Li Yu dared to talk back to Li Shimin and play a rogue, but he didn't dare to do that with Empress Changsun.
Li Zhi gently pulled Li Yu's sleeve, and said to him in a low voice: "Xiao Yu'er, Auntie is worried about you, you have to listen to Auntie."
Thinking of Empress Changsun and the others rushing to the Changsun Mansion overnight to guard him, Li Yu immediately compromised, pouted and said, "Okay, I'll go back to the palace."
"Be good." Empress Changsun smiled very softly, "When you get better, Auntie will let you out to play."
"Aniang, do you keep your word?"
"keep your word."
Li Yu trusted Empress Changsun's words very much.Because Empress Changsun always said what she said, especially in front of her children, she never broke her promise.
Li Shimin was very angry when he saw that his youngest son listened to Empress Changsun and refused to listen to him.
Before Li Yu left, he asked Changsun Jing and the others to continue practicing Cuju, and he would come out to find them in a few days, and then check and accept their practice results.As for the rules of the Cuju game, after he returned to the palace, he would write it down and send someone to deliver it at that time.
Changsun Jing and the others knew that the Cuju competition was to make money, and they attached great importance to it as much as Li Yu did. Even if Li Yu didn't say anything, they would still practice every day, and strive to practice well as soon as possible.
There is also the matter of looking for pigs, Li Yu plans to go back to the palace to look for them first, to see if there are any in the palace.If there is one in the palace, then he doesn't have to go out of the palace to look for it.If there is no one in the palace, then he has to go out of the palace to find it among the people.
On the way back to the palace, Li Shimin kept a cold face, "I'm very upset".
Empress Changsun naturally knew what Li Shimin was up to, but she didn't say it, she just looked at her second brother with a smile.
Li Yu and Li Zhi looked at each other, not understanding what kind of temper Li Shimin was throwing.
"Aniang, I have something to ask you." Li Yu was thinking about pork, and he didn't have the time to talk to Comrade Li who was playing with his temper.
"whats the matter?"
"Aniang, is there a pig in the palace?" His aunt should know the most about the affairs in the palace. Instead of going to the Shangshi Bureau to ask, it is better to ask his aunt directly.
"Pig?" Empress Changsun was taken aback by the youngest son's question, she came back to her senses after a while, and asked with a puzzled face, "Why are you asking this?"
Comrade Li, who was throwing a temper tantrum, forgot to put on a cold face when he heard Li Yu's question, and looked at his youngest son strangely.
"Aniang, tell me first whether there are pigs in the palace?"
"No." Empress Changsun's tone was very firm.
"Really not?"
"No, pigs are not allowed in the palace." In the view of Empress Changsun, pigs are too dirty, and if kept in the palace, it may smell bad. "What do you ask the pig for?"
Li Yu didn't answer Empress Changsun's question, but continued to ask, "Aniang, have you ever seen a pig? Does anyone in Chang'an raise pigs?"
"I've seen it." Empress Changsun saw it when she was a child, and she saw it in a farmer's household. "There should be no one raising pigs in Chang'an City, and some farmers outside the city should raise pigs." Dirty and smelly things like pigs are definitely not allowed in Chang'an City.
After Li Yu heard this, he sighed helplessly in his heart. It's really... a waste of money for such a big baby that can eat the whole body of a pig to be so disgusted.Since no one raises pigs in Chang'an City, he can only look for them outside Chang'an City.
"Little fish, what do you ask pig for?"
"It's nothing..." Forget it, let's wait until he finds the pig and finds out the various ways to eat it. At that time, A Niang and the others will know that pork is a good thing without him specifically saying it.
Empress Changsun naturally didn't believe the younger son's words, looked at the younger son suspiciously, and asked again: "Xiao Yu'er, what are you asking pig for?"
"Aniang, I won't tell you now, you will find out after a while." Li Yu never expected pigs to be so disliked in the Tang Dynasty. Now that he tells Empress Changsun that he wants to eat pork, Empress Changsun and the others will think he is crazy , so let’s not talk about it.
Empress Changsun felt helpless and amused when she saw that her youngest son was still playing tricks.Immediately thinking of her youngest son's restless temper, she couldn't help feeling a little worried.
"You're not thinking of something, are you?" Based on what she knew about her youngest son, he would never ask this question out of nowhere.
Li Shimin didn't know what he was thinking, and his face suddenly became gloomy, "Little brat, you don't want to raise pigs, do you?"
Li Yu really wanted to raise pigs, but he didn't raise them himself.He had a plan in mind, after finding the pigs, he would build a farm, and then set up a pig farm in the farm.
When Li Shimin saw that his younger son was hesitating, he didn't immediately refute his answer, and was even more sure of his guess, so he raised his hand and knocked his younger son on the head angrily.
"It hurts!" Li Yu covered the place where Li Shimin just hit the pain, and stared at him dissatisfied, "Aye, why did you hit me?"
"You were the one who hit, do you want to raise a pig?" Li Shimin thought to himself that he guessed right, this little brat likes to mess around.
Li Yu repeatedly shook his head in denial: "I didn't, don't wrong me."
Li Shimin snorted coldly: "Do you think I will believe what you say?" Li Shimin had seen a hog before, and at that time he was made to vomit by the stench of the hog, so he didn't have a good impression of the hog.Furthermore, hogs are not as useful as oxen, horses, and sheep. "You little bastard, the pig is dirty and smelly, what are you raising the pig for?" After speaking, he stretched out his hand and twisted Li Yu's little ear.
Li Yu waved and slapped Li Shimin's hand, and yelled in pain, "It hurts, hurts... Aye, let go of my ears..."
"Do you think you want to raise pigs?" This little bastard will do anything out of the ordinary.
"No..." Li Yu deliberately made a look of being in pain, and his delicate facial features were wrinkled together in pain.
Empress Changsun saw that her youngest son was in severe pain, and quickly asked Li Shimin to loosen his youngest son's ears.
Li Yu stretched out his hands and rubbed his ears that were hurt by Li Shimin's pinching, his eyes were red and tears were in his eyes, he stared at Li Shimin complaining and complaining, and said with a choked mouth, "You wronged me, I didn't..."
When Empress Changsun saw the wronged look of her youngest son, she immediately felt distressed. While hugging her youngest son to comfort her, she gave Li Shimin a hard look.
"Second brother, can't you be gentle?" Empress Changsun lowered her head and checked the ears of her younger son, and found that the ear of the younger son was twisted and turned red, so red that it was about to bleed. Empress Changsun roared angrily, " Second brother?!"
Seeing that Queen Changsun was angry, Li Shimin quickly smiled at her flatteringly, "I accidentally..." Li Shimin felt wronged, he felt that he didn't use too much force.
Empress Changsun was too angry to talk to Li Shimin, and blew into her younger son's flushed ears.
Li Yu took advantage of this moment to add fuel to the flames, with a small expression of wanting to cry: "Mother, Aye wronged me, I really didn't want to raise a pig."
"You don't raise pigs, so what do you ask pigs for?" Li Shimin couldn't believe that his youngest son asked questions about pigs for no reason. This little bastard must be planning something.
"Of course I have something to ask about pigs, but I can't tell you now." Li Yu raised his right hand to make an oath at this point, "I swear that I have absolutely no evil intentions, let alone raising pigs." He doesn't know how to raise pigs. Pigs, how could it be possible to raise pigs by yourself.
Li Zhi on the side spoke for Li Yu, "Aye, Auntie, Xiao Yuer will never raise pigs."
"Why can't you tell us now?"
"It's meaningless to tell you now." Alas, he just wanted to eat pork, why was he suspected of doing bad things, he was really wronged and difficult.
Empress Changsun reached out her hand and tapped the tip of her younger son's nose, "My mother trusts you for the time being."
"Thank you aunt, aunt is the best." After speaking, Li Yu deliberately gave Li Shimin a sideways glance, "It's not like Aye."
"What's wrong with me?"
Li Yu stuck out his tongue at Li Shimin, and put his hands around his mouth to make a face at Old Comrade Li, "Lululu...Aye is the worst..." After finishing speaking, he made a pig nose movement.
Li Shimin laughed angrily at his youngest son's grimace, stretched out his hand to pinch his youngest son's soft face, and asked angrily, "What's wrong with me?"
"Aye, you not only wronged me, but also pulled my ears." Li Yu said angrily, "The most important thing is that you don't believe me."
"You little heartless..." Li Shimin cursed, but his eyes were full of doting, "Okay, I will trust you this time."
Li Yu pouted and put on a disdainful look, "I don't care if you believe me, as long as A Niang believes me."
Hearing this, Li Shimin was so angry that he wanted to spank his younger son's ass, but he couldn't spank his younger son, who was in the arms of Empress Changsun.
"Aniang, Aye is going to hit me again." Li Yu put on a frightened look and hid in the arms of Empress Changsun.
Empress Changsun looked helplessly at Li Shimin: "Second Brother..."
"Guanyin maidservant, you can't spoil him like this."
"Second brother, what are you fussing about with Xiao Yu'er?" Empress Changsun looked at Li Shimin who was blowing his beard and staring with anger, and laughed in her heart: Second brother doesn't know that he is as childish as Xiao Yu'er now.
Li Shimin said angrily: "You just get used to him."
"Aye, Auntie doesn't like me, does she like you?" Li Yu poked his head out of the arms of Empress Changsun and gave Li Shimin a contemptuous look, "Aye, you are still fighting for favor with me, do you know that?" Shame?"
The despised Li Shimin gritted his teeth angrily: "..." This little bastard is really getting more and more lawless.
Empress Changsun pinched her youngest son's nose, "Don't say that about you, Aye."
Li Yu cooperated with Empress Changsun very much, and nodded obediently: "I see." After speaking, he added another sentence, "I won't make fun of Aye."
Empress Changsun nodded her younger son's forehead, "You..."
Li Shimin was so angry that he didn't want to talk anymore. Sooner or later, he would be pissed to death by this little bastard.
Soon, we arrived at the palace.
As soon as she returned to the palace, Empress Changsun called Imperial Physician Ning and asked him to take Li Yu's pulse again.
Before taking the pulse, Imperial Physician Ning saw that Li Yu's complexion and energy were good, and he was more than half relieved.Afterwards, he took Li Yu's pulse carefully. Compared with last night's pulse, Li Yu's pulse became much calmer and stronger.
"Empress, His Highness King Rui is fine." Imperial Physician Ning did not expect that His Highness King Rui, who was still feverish last night, would become lively at this moment.This would have been impossible a year ago. "Empress, His Royal Highness Rui is much stronger than last year, and after a period of recuperation, he will be as strong and strong as everyone else." Gradually becoming stronger, Physician Ning was full of pride, because he had always been in charge of treating His Royal Highness King Rui.
"If you need any tonic, you can prescribe it." The youngest son has been weak and sickly since birth, and almost died several times, which made the eldest grandson always worry about him.Also, this is also a big heart disease of Empress Changsun.Now knowing that the youngest son will be as healthy as other children in a while, Empress Changsun can finally recover from her heart disease.
"Empress, His Royal Highness King Rui's body does not need tonics, ordinary tonics will do." Sometimes tonics will have the opposite effect, especially for children. "I have already prescribed the medicine for His Royal Highness King Rui to take care of his body, please have a look."
Empress Changsun knew a little bit of medical theory, took the tonic prescription prescribed by Ning Taiyi, took a look at it and found that the medicinal materials on it were indeed very common, but they were very nourishing when combined.
"Just follow your prescription."
"Yes, Empress." Imperial Physician Ning finished speaking, and found that Empress Changsun's complexion was not good. "Empress, your complexion does not look very good. I will take your pulse."
"I'm fine, I don't need to take my pulse." She didn't sleep all night last night, so her complexion looked very bad.
"Empress, you'd better ask me to take your pulse."
"Aniang, you can ask Imperial Physician Ning to take your pulse."
"Okay." Empress Changsun had no choice but to stretch out her wrist and ask Imperial Physician Ning to feel her pulse.
After Imperial Physician Ning took the pulse of Empress Changsun for a while, his face changed suddenly, and there was a look of astonishment in his eyes.
Shu Wang Li Ke met Prince Li Chengqian on the way, and he and Prince Li Chengqian came to Changsun Mansion together.
For Prince Li Chengqian, Li Ke, the king of Shu, looked down on him. He felt that Li Chengqian was inferior to him in everything, whether it was talent or temperament.
In the view of Li Ke, the king of Shu, Prince Li Chengqian's qualifications are mediocre, and his temper is a little indecisive, so he is not worthy of being the prince of a country.He also believed that this country was brought down by Li Shimin's hard work and the infamy of thousands of generations. As a prince, he should manage this hard-won country well and carry it forward, but Li Chengqian did not have this talent.
He felt that handing over the Tang Dynasty to Li Chengqian would only ruin Li Chengqian, so he refused to accept Li Chengqian as the crown prince, and had been trying to find a way to pull Li Chengqian from the crown prince.
Although Li Ke, the king of Shu, refused to accept Li Chengqian in political affairs, but in private, Li Ke, the king of Shu, didn't have much opinion on Li Chengqian, the eldest brother.Seeing Li Chengqian, he would call him "Big Brother".
Wei Wang Li Tai frowned when he saw Shu Wang Li Ke also came.Among their brothers, the person Wei Wang Li Tai feared the most was not Prince Li Chengqian, but Shu King Li Ke.
Compared with Prince Li Chengqian, Shu King Li Ke is more difficult to deal with because he is talented and courageous.The most important thing is that Li Shimin once praised Shu King Li Ke in public, saying that he is the son most like him.This made Wei Wang Li Tai always jealous of Shu King Li Ke.
Although King Wei Li Tai was wary of King Li Ke of Shu, he did not take action against Li Ke, King of Shu, because he knew that King Li Ke of Shu was also eyeing the prince.Wei Wang Li Tai did not intervene in the open and secret struggle between Shu Wang Li Ke and Prince Li Chengqian, just wanted to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian and Shu King Li Ke respectfully saluted Li Shimin successively, and then asked about Li Yu's situation with concern.
Knowing that Li Yu was fine, Crown Prince Li Chengqian and Shu King Li Ke both had expressions of rejoicing.
Although Li Ke, king of Shu, didn't have much contact with Li Yu, he liked Li Yu, his spooky little brother very much.He was really worried when he learned that Li Yu was ill early this morning.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Shimin took his sons back to the palace to go to court, otherwise he would be "taught" by Wei Zheng again if he went to court too late.
On the way back to the palace, King Wei Li Tai rode beside Prince Li Chengqian and asked, "Why did you come with Li Ke?"
Prince Li Chengqian said in a calm tone: "I met on the road."
"Really?" Wei Wang Li Tai didn't quite believe it.When Prince Li Chengqian and Shu King Li Ke came to the Changsun Mansion just now, they were talking and laughing, which made Wei Wang Li Tai think a lot.
Prince Li Chengqian didn't bother to explain Wei Wang Li Tai's doubts, and let Wei Wang Li Tai think about it.
For Wei Wang Li Tai, the last thing he wants to see is the alliance between Shu Wang Li Ke and Prince Li Chengqian, which is very detrimental to him.
Li Shimin and the others left, and Li Yu woke up on the back.To be precise, he woke up from hunger.
When Li Yu opened his eyes and woke up, he saw Empress Changsun sleeping next to him, and he was startled. He didn't understand why his mother was on his bed?Later, he remembered that he had a cold and a fever last night.
Did A Niang and Comrade Lao Li rush from the palace to Changsun's mansion last night and guard him all the time?
Li Yu saw that his mother was sleeping very deeply, she didn't wake up early like usual.Generally speaking, Empress Changsun has already woken up at this time, but today's Empress Changsun is still sleeping.Li Yu guessed that his mother must have kept him up all night last night, which made him feel sore.
Being hugged by Empress Changsun, Li Yu didn't dare to move, fearing that if he moved a little, his mother would be awakened.Although he was hungry, Li Yu still held back and didn't move.
Empress Changsun usually doesn't have the habit of sleeping in late, even if she didn't sleep last night, she only slept for two hours and woke up at the beginning of time.
As soon as she woke up, she went to look for Li Yu, and seeing her little son sleeping soundly in her arms, she couldn't help but chuckle.Then, she stretched out her hand and gently touched the forehead and face of her younger son. Seeing that the temperature was normal, she was completely relieved.
Empress Changsun just got up and was about to get out of bed when she saw her younger son who had been sleeping soundly woke up, "Did Aunt wake you up?"
Li Yu woke up once before, and then fell asleep again. When he just woke up, he was very confused. He blinked blankly, and softly called out: "Aunt!"
"Aniang is here, Xiao Yu'er, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Empress Changsun asked very gently.
Li Yu opened his mouth and yawned, then pouted and said pitifully, "Mother, I'm hungry, I want to eat."
When she heard her youngest son say that she was hungry, Empress Changsun felt more at ease, "Since you are hungry, get up and eat."
"Okay..." Li Yu got up obediently, yawned with his mouth wide open, and stretched indistinctly.
Empress Changsun had already got out of bed and got dressed, and then picked up Li Yu's clothes from the hanger beside her, "Come, get dressed."
Li Yu stood up and stood on the bed, opened his hands like Li Shimin, and smiled coquettishly at Empress Changsun: "Aniang, help me dress."
For the youngest son's acting like a baby, Empress Changsun was very happy to accept it, "Okay, Auntie will wear it for you."
After Empress Changsun finished dressing Li Yu, he kissed his aunt's face forcefully, "Thank you aunt, aunt is the best, I like aunt most."
Empress Changsun listened to her youngest son's flattery, pinched his little mouth amusedly and dotingly, "Where did you learn it, kisses that make me drool?" After speaking, she deliberately raised her hand to wipe his mouth. Wipe the place where Li Yu kissed just now.
"Aniang, I love you, that's why I kiss you." Li Yu tilted his head and said with a smile, "Don't those countries in the Western Regions have the etiquette of kissing on the cheek?"
"Yes, why didn't I know?" Empress Changsun looked suspicious, "Where did you know?"
Li Yu's eyes dodged, "It seems to be read in some book."
"Which book?"
Li Yu straightened his face, and his tone was very serious: "Aniang, it doesn't matter which book you read it in. The important thing is that kissing on the face means being close."
Empress Changsun heard her youngest son's unreasonable words, but she couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, aunt, I know, but you can't kiss casually about face kisses, especially young girls."
As soon as Li Yu heard this, he immediately pouted his mouth, "Aniang, I don't kiss any little girls."
"A little girl from a relative's family is indecent, do you know that?" Empress Changsun reached out and touched the pale pink mole between the eyebrows of her younger son, "As a boy, you can't treat girls casually."
Li Yu nodded in resignation, and said obediently, "Aniang, I understand!"
Empress Changsun reached out and touched her youngest son's head, and praised: "Little Yu'er is so good!"
"Aniang, how did you and Aye know that I was sick?"
"Your eldest sister suddenly entered the palace in the middle of the night last night, and went to the Imperial Medical Office to find Imperial Physician Ning. You and I, Aye, both guessed that you were sick." The eldest grandson empress nodded again on the forehead of her younger son, "You made me sick last night. And you aye scared."
Thinking of Aye and Aniang rushing over from the palace when they found out that he was sick last night, and guarding him all night, Li Yu was moved and at the same time very uncomfortable, "Aniang, I'm sorry, I let you I'm worried, I will definitely pay attention in the future, and don't let myself get sick again." He just had a slight cold and fever, but it frightened everyone around him and made everyone worry about him. It really is... It seems that last year he The serious illness scared A Niang and the others out of their hearts.
"Okay, Mommy believes you." Empress Changsun raised her hand and patted her younger son's buttocks, "Aren't you hungry, get out of bed and wash up."
"Yes, Ma'am!"
Knowing that Empress Changsun and Li Yu woke up, Princess Changle and the others came over, and seeing that Li Yu was in good spirits and complexion, they felt relieved.
Li Yu was hungry and ate breakfast with a big appetite.
Mrs. Changsun saw that Li Yu could eat so much, so she said to Empress Changsun: "Empress, it seems that His Royal Highness King Rui is really fine."
"Well, it's really all right." In the past, every time the youngest son got sick, he had to take care of him for a long time before he recovered.This time, it was fine overnight, and it seemed that it was really all right.
"Empress, His Royal Highness King Rui will be blessed." Madam Changsun wanted to say that Li Yu must be blessed if he survives a catastrophe.
"I don't ask him to have any great blessings, I just ask him to grow up healthy and healthy in this life, and live in peace for the rest of his life."
"Yes, His Highness King Rui will definitely grow up healthy and safe."
Li Zhi sat next to Li Yu, holding food for him with chopsticks.
Li Yu's mouth was full, and his cheeks were bulging like a little squirrel.
Li Zhi saw that Li Yu was eating happily as usual, and smiled very happily.
After Li Yu finished eating, he deliberately stared at Li Zhi: "Ninth brother, you are feeding me like a pig."
"Pig?" Li Zhi heard the word "pig" for the first time, his little face was full of doubts, "Xiao Yuer, what is a pig?"
"Ah?" Li Yu was startled by Li Zhi's words, and stared at his ninth brother with wide eyes in disbelief, "Ninth brother, you don't know what a pig is?"
"I don't know." Li Zhi shook his head, "I've never heard of it."
"Impossible, it's impossible for you not to have heard of pigs..." Li Yu suddenly thought of something when he said this. He has been in the Tang Dynasty for a year, and it seems that he has never eaten pork.During the first half of the year, he was in poor health and could not eat many things, so he did not pay attention to pork.In the second half of the year, he finally didn't have to be jealous, but he disliked that the meals made by the imperial chef of the Shangshi Bureau were not only not delicious, but also had a small variety, so he was busy getting some delicacies from later generations, and ended up messing around. The pork was forgotten.
"Ninth brother, you really don't know about pigs?" Li Yu thought to himself that this is impossible, pigs have existed since ancient times, how could it be possible that there were no pigs in the Tang Dynasty.
Li Zhi nodded: "I don't know."
"A pig looks like this..." Li Yu described the appearance of a pig to Li Zhi.
After he finished speaking, Li Zhi showed a dazed expression, "Little Yu'er, the pig you're talking about is a pig."
"That's right, it's a pig." He forgot that in ancient times, a pig was not called a pig, but a pig.
"I haven't seen a pig." Li Zhi has only seen a pig in books, but he has never seen a pig in real life.
Li Yu asked strangely: "Are there no pigs in the palace?"
Li Zhi shook his head: "I don't know." He didn't know if there were pigs in the palace. "However, hogs seem to be rare."
"Not often, aren't there many pigs?" The name pig is really awkward, it's better to call it pig.
Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "It seems not many."
"Strange, aren't pigs domestic animals? Why are they so rare..." Li Yu suddenly thought of something, as if he had never seen pork in this year.Thinking back carefully, the meat they ate in the palace was basically chicken, duck, goose, fish, mutton and the like. "Brother Jiu, don't people in Tang Dynasty eat pork?"
"pork?"
"It's pig meat." The pronunciation of the word pig is really...
Li Zhi widened his eyes and looked at Li Yu in surprise: "Little fish, pigs are so dirty, how can they eat them?!"
Seeing Li Zhi's unbelievably terrified expression, Li Yu couldn't help being stunned.According to Brother Jiu's words, people in Tang Dynasty really don't eat pork. The reason is because of pig's dirty?
Pigs are quite dirty, but pork is so delicious that Datang people actually dislike it. This is really... No wonder he has never seen pork on the dinner table in the year since he came to Datang!
Seeing Li Yu's dazed look, Li Zhi couldn't help but feel worried. He quickly reached out and patted his younger brother's shoulder lightly, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Yu'er, what's wrong with you, are you feeling well?"
Li Yu was called back to his thoughts by Li Zhi, turned his head to see his ninth brother looking at him worriedly, and quickly smiled at his ninth brother comfortingly: "Ninth brother, I'm fine."
Li Zhi was worried, and asked again: "Xiao Yu'er, are you really alright?"
"I'm really fine, I'm just too surprised." Li Yuyuan thought that people have eaten pork since ancient times, but he didn't expect that it was not like this.
"Surprised at what?"
"Surprised that no one eats pork." Li Yu saw Li Zhi's disgusted expression just after he finished speaking, and quickly raised his hand to stop his next words, "Don't say pigs are dirty, but pork is delicious, and you will know it in the future." When it came to pork, Li Yu suddenly wanted to eat braised pork.The thought of braised pork in soy sauce made his mouth water. "No, I'm going to find the pig."
"Ah?" Li Zhi was startled by Li Yu's last words, "Are you going to find pig?"
"Brother Jiu, after you eat braised pork, you will know that pork is the most delicious meat in the world." Li Yu's mind is full of braised pork, stir-fried pork, pork belly barbecue, pork ribs, stir-fried pork intestine..." Ninth brother, you trust me."
Li Zhi has always trusted Li Yu very much, and he trusted him blindly. Hearing what Li Yu said, he nodded subconsciously: "Okay, I believe you." Xiao Yu'er is the best at eating, Xiao Yu'er said Pork is delicious, so it must be delicious.
"I don't know if there are pigs in the palace?" Li Yu thought about returning to the palace in a few days, so he went to the Food Bureau to ask if there were pigs in the palace.
"When we get back to the palace, let's go and ask." Li Zhi took a mutton bun for Li Yu, "Eat more."
Li Yu looked at the buns in the bowl, the chopsticks in your hand, picked up the buns and gently broke the two halves, took half of the buns and stuffed them into Li Zhi's mouth, "Ninth brother, you eat too."
With half a bun in his mouth, Li Zhi blinked in a daze, and smiled after a while.
Empress Changsun happened to see this scene, and her heart softened involuntarily.
After Li Yu finished his breakfast, Zhang Sunjing and the others came to visit Li Yu one after another after school. Seeing Li Yu alive and kicking like yesterday, they were overjoyed.
After a while, Li Shimin, Prince Li Chengqian, Wei Wang Li Tai, Shu King Li Ke, and several other princes also came to the Changsun Mansion.
Seeing Li Shimin, Li Yu happily ran towards him, still yelling sweetly: "Aye!"
Li Shimin looked at his younger son who was running towards him, he couldn't help but squat down, and opened his hands to catch Li Yu who rushed into his arms.
Li Yu stretched out his arms to hug Li Shimin's neck, rubbed his soft chubby face against Li Shimin's bearded face, and shouted happily, "Aye! Aye! Aye!"
Li Shimin hugged his younger son and stood up, letting him sit on his arm, then he lowered his head and looked at his face carefully.Although the youngest son's face was still a little pale, he was in good spirits, especially his pair of bright eyes.
Seeing that his youngest son was as energetic as before, Li Shimin was completely relieved. He looked at his youngest son with loving eyes, "Okay, is there any discomfort?"
"No, I feel very good now." Li Yu raised his hand and patted his small chest lightly, "There is nothing uncomfortable, really!" After finishing speaking, he added, "I just can't be beaten to death." Xiaoqiang, the vitality is particularly tenacious!"
Seeing his youngest son recovering his usual quick-wittedness, Li Shimin's eyes were full of kindness. He stretched out his finger and tapped the pale pink mole between his eyebrows, "Who is Xiaoqiang?"
"It's just a kind of bug. Its vitality is particularly tenacious..." Before Li Yu finished speaking, his face was pinched by Li Shimin.
"No one would say that he is a bug." Li Shimin pinched his small fleshy face again, and said with a joking smile, "I see you as a monkey."
Crown Prince Li Chengqian and the others looked at the intimate interaction between Li Shimin and Li Yu, each with subtle expressions, and even a little jealous in their hearts.Because, they had never been treated so intimately by their father when they were young.
"Brother Prince, you are here too." Li Yu lay on Li Shimin's shoulder, raised his small hand and waved to Prince Li Chengqian and the others, "Are you here to see me?"
"Yes, we were very worried when we learned that you were sick." Prince Li Chengqian said with a smile, "You scared us."
"I'm sorry to make you worry." Li Yu smiled gratefully at Prince Li Chengqian and the others, "Brother Prince, thank you for coming to see me."
"Thank you, you are our younger brother." Prince Li Chengqian suddenly became serious when he said this, "However, you have to be careful in the future, don't get sick again."
Li Yu raised his hand to his temple, made a nondescript military salute, and smiled at Prince Li Chengqian in a playful manner: "Obey, brother Prince!"
Prince Li Chengqian was amused by Li Yu's appearance, but he deliberately said with a straight face: "If you don't obey orders, I will punish you."
"Is this an order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Li Yuchong blinked at Prince Li Chengqian, and then looked serious, "If it is an order from His Highness the Crown Prince, my younger brother must obey it." He deliberately placed the words "His Royal Highness" very seriously. .
Wei Wang Li Tai frowned slightly when he heard Li Yu's words.
Li Ke, King of Shu, didn't react when he heard this, and still kept a faint smile on his face.
The Crown Prince Li Chengqian didn't notice this. Hearing what Li Yu said, he deliberately assumed the posture of a prince, "Yes, it's His Royal Highness's order, so you must obey it!"
Li Yu bowed to Prince Li Chengqian with his hands clasped in fists, with a serious expression on his face: "Yes, Your Highness the Prince!"
"Hahahahaha..." Prince Li Chengqian and his brothers burst out laughing at Li Yu's appearance.
When Empress Changsun saw the scene of Li Shimin and his father and son laughing together, her heart felt sour and her eyes were slightly red.
Li Shimin and the others had lunch at Changsun Mansion.During the meal, Li Yu kept playing tricks to make Li Shimin and the others laugh non-stop. The meal was very warm.
After lunch, when Li Yu saw that Li Shimin and the others wanted to take him back to the palace, he immediately became unhappy.
"I don't want to go back to the palace." He still had a lot of things to do.
"You haven't played well yet?" Li Shimin had already guessed that the youngest son would not return to the palace honestly.
"No." Li Yu thought about the start of Cuju practice, Changsun Jing and the others were not yet fully familiar with the rules of Cuju competition.Also, he was going to find the pigs. "I'm going to play for a while."
Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun, "Look at me, I think he's playing crazy, and he doesn't even want to go back to the palace now."
"Aye, but you said it yourself, let me play with uncle for a while longer." Li Yu curled his lips and said with a little disgust, "How can you keep your word?"
"Uh..." Li Shimin was blocked by his younger son's words, and couldn't find anything to refute for a while.
Seeing Li Shimin choked and speechless, Empress Changsun almost couldn't help laughing, "Xiao Yu'er, how long do you plan to play?"
"Aniang, I'm done playing, so I'll go back to the palace." He had to wait for Changsun Jing and the others to thoroughly familiarize themselves with the rules of the Cuju game before going back.
"Little Yu'er, you are still sick. If you don't go back to the palace, Auntie will be worried." Empress Changsun said softly, "After you recover from illness, Auntie will let you come to play with uncle."
"Aniang, I've recovered from my illness." Li Yu said and jumped up and down in front of Empress Changsun, "Look at me, I'm alive and kicking."
Empress Changsun didn't say anything else, she just looked at Li Yu quietly.
Li Yu was stunned by Empress Changsun's majestic eyes, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm really well..."
"Physician Ning said that you need to be recuperated. You should go back to the palace with Auntie obediently. After you are recuperated, Auntie will let you go out of the palace to play." Empress Changsun's tone could not be refused.
Li Yu dared to talk back to Li Shimin and play a rogue, but he didn't dare to do that with Empress Changsun.
Li Zhi gently pulled Li Yu's sleeve, and said to him in a low voice: "Xiao Yu'er, Auntie is worried about you, you have to listen to Auntie."
Thinking of Empress Changsun and the others rushing to the Changsun Mansion overnight to guard him, Li Yu immediately compromised, pouted and said, "Okay, I'll go back to the palace."
"Be good." Empress Changsun smiled very softly, "When you get better, Auntie will let you out to play."
"Aniang, do you keep your word?"
"keep your word."
Li Yu trusted Empress Changsun's words very much.Because Empress Changsun always said what she said, especially in front of her children, she never broke her promise.
Li Shimin was very angry when he saw that his youngest son listened to Empress Changsun and refused to listen to him.
Before Li Yu left, he asked Changsun Jing and the others to continue practicing Cuju, and he would come out to find them in a few days, and then check and accept their practice results.As for the rules of the Cuju game, after he returned to the palace, he would write it down and send someone to deliver it at that time.
Changsun Jing and the others knew that the Cuju competition was to make money, and they attached great importance to it as much as Li Yu did. Even if Li Yu didn't say anything, they would still practice every day, and strive to practice well as soon as possible.
There is also the matter of looking for pigs, Li Yu plans to go back to the palace to look for them first, to see if there are any in the palace.If there is one in the palace, then he doesn't have to go out of the palace to look for it.If there is no one in the palace, then he has to go out of the palace to find it among the people.
On the way back to the palace, Li Shimin kept a cold face, "I'm very upset".
Empress Changsun naturally knew what Li Shimin was up to, but she didn't say it, she just looked at her second brother with a smile.
Li Yu and Li Zhi looked at each other, not understanding what kind of temper Li Shimin was throwing.
"Aniang, I have something to ask you." Li Yu was thinking about pork, and he didn't have the time to talk to Comrade Li who was playing with his temper.
"whats the matter?"
"Aniang, is there a pig in the palace?" His aunt should know the most about the affairs in the palace. Instead of going to the Shangshi Bureau to ask, it is better to ask his aunt directly.
"Pig?" Empress Changsun was taken aback by the youngest son's question, she came back to her senses after a while, and asked with a puzzled face, "Why are you asking this?"
Comrade Li, who was throwing a temper tantrum, forgot to put on a cold face when he heard Li Yu's question, and looked at his youngest son strangely.
"Aniang, tell me first whether there are pigs in the palace?"
"No." Empress Changsun's tone was very firm.
"Really not?"
"No, pigs are not allowed in the palace." In the view of Empress Changsun, pigs are too dirty, and if kept in the palace, it may smell bad. "What do you ask the pig for?"
Li Yu didn't answer Empress Changsun's question, but continued to ask, "Aniang, have you ever seen a pig? Does anyone in Chang'an raise pigs?"
"I've seen it." Empress Changsun saw it when she was a child, and she saw it in a farmer's household. "There should be no one raising pigs in Chang'an City, and some farmers outside the city should raise pigs." Dirty and smelly things like pigs are definitely not allowed in Chang'an City.
After Li Yu heard this, he sighed helplessly in his heart. It's really... a waste of money for such a big baby that can eat the whole body of a pig to be so disgusted.Since no one raises pigs in Chang'an City, he can only look for them outside Chang'an City.
"Little fish, what do you ask pig for?"
"It's nothing..." Forget it, let's wait until he finds the pig and finds out the various ways to eat it. At that time, A Niang and the others will know that pork is a good thing without him specifically saying it.
Empress Changsun naturally didn't believe the younger son's words, looked at the younger son suspiciously, and asked again: "Xiao Yu'er, what are you asking pig for?"
"Aniang, I won't tell you now, you will find out after a while." Li Yu never expected pigs to be so disliked in the Tang Dynasty. Now that he tells Empress Changsun that he wants to eat pork, Empress Changsun and the others will think he is crazy , so let’s not talk about it.
Empress Changsun felt helpless and amused when she saw that her youngest son was still playing tricks.Immediately thinking of her youngest son's restless temper, she couldn't help feeling a little worried.
"You're not thinking of something, are you?" Based on what she knew about her youngest son, he would never ask this question out of nowhere.
Li Shimin didn't know what he was thinking, and his face suddenly became gloomy, "Little brat, you don't want to raise pigs, do you?"
Li Yu really wanted to raise pigs, but he didn't raise them himself.He had a plan in mind, after finding the pigs, he would build a farm, and then set up a pig farm in the farm.
When Li Shimin saw that his younger son was hesitating, he didn't immediately refute his answer, and was even more sure of his guess, so he raised his hand and knocked his younger son on the head angrily.
"It hurts!" Li Yu covered the place where Li Shimin just hit the pain, and stared at him dissatisfied, "Aye, why did you hit me?"
"You were the one who hit, do you want to raise a pig?" Li Shimin thought to himself that he guessed right, this little brat likes to mess around.
Li Yu repeatedly shook his head in denial: "I didn't, don't wrong me."
Li Shimin snorted coldly: "Do you think I will believe what you say?" Li Shimin had seen a hog before, and at that time he was made to vomit by the stench of the hog, so he didn't have a good impression of the hog.Furthermore, hogs are not as useful as oxen, horses, and sheep. "You little bastard, the pig is dirty and smelly, what are you raising the pig for?" After speaking, he stretched out his hand and twisted Li Yu's little ear.
Li Yu waved and slapped Li Shimin's hand, and yelled in pain, "It hurts, hurts... Aye, let go of my ears..."
"Do you think you want to raise pigs?" This little bastard will do anything out of the ordinary.
"No..." Li Yu deliberately made a look of being in pain, and his delicate facial features were wrinkled together in pain.
Empress Changsun saw that her youngest son was in severe pain, and quickly asked Li Shimin to loosen his youngest son's ears.
Li Yu stretched out his hands and rubbed his ears that were hurt by Li Shimin's pinching, his eyes were red and tears were in his eyes, he stared at Li Shimin complaining and complaining, and said with a choked mouth, "You wronged me, I didn't..."
When Empress Changsun saw the wronged look of her youngest son, she immediately felt distressed. While hugging her youngest son to comfort her, she gave Li Shimin a hard look.
"Second brother, can't you be gentle?" Empress Changsun lowered her head and checked the ears of her younger son, and found that the ear of the younger son was twisted and turned red, so red that it was about to bleed. Empress Changsun roared angrily, " Second brother?!"
Seeing that Queen Changsun was angry, Li Shimin quickly smiled at her flatteringly, "I accidentally..." Li Shimin felt wronged, he felt that he didn't use too much force.
Empress Changsun was too angry to talk to Li Shimin, and blew into her younger son's flushed ears.
Li Yu took advantage of this moment to add fuel to the flames, with a small expression of wanting to cry: "Mother, Aye wronged me, I really didn't want to raise a pig."
"You don't raise pigs, so what do you ask pigs for?" Li Shimin couldn't believe that his youngest son asked questions about pigs for no reason. This little bastard must be planning something.
"Of course I have something to ask about pigs, but I can't tell you now." Li Yu raised his right hand to make an oath at this point, "I swear that I have absolutely no evil intentions, let alone raising pigs." He doesn't know how to raise pigs. Pigs, how could it be possible to raise pigs by yourself.
Li Zhi on the side spoke for Li Yu, "Aye, Auntie, Xiao Yuer will never raise pigs."
"Why can't you tell us now?"
"It's meaningless to tell you now." Alas, he just wanted to eat pork, why was he suspected of doing bad things, he was really wronged and difficult.
Empress Changsun reached out her hand and tapped the tip of her younger son's nose, "My mother trusts you for the time being."
"Thank you aunt, aunt is the best." After speaking, Li Yu deliberately gave Li Shimin a sideways glance, "It's not like Aye."
"What's wrong with me?"
Li Yu stuck out his tongue at Li Shimin, and put his hands around his mouth to make a face at Old Comrade Li, "Lululu...Aye is the worst..." After finishing speaking, he made a pig nose movement.
Li Shimin laughed angrily at his youngest son's grimace, stretched out his hand to pinch his youngest son's soft face, and asked angrily, "What's wrong with me?"
"Aye, you not only wronged me, but also pulled my ears." Li Yu said angrily, "The most important thing is that you don't believe me."
"You little heartless..." Li Shimin cursed, but his eyes were full of doting, "Okay, I will trust you this time."
Li Yu pouted and put on a disdainful look, "I don't care if you believe me, as long as A Niang believes me."
Hearing this, Li Shimin was so angry that he wanted to spank his younger son's ass, but he couldn't spank his younger son, who was in the arms of Empress Changsun.
"Aniang, Aye is going to hit me again." Li Yu put on a frightened look and hid in the arms of Empress Changsun.
Empress Changsun looked helplessly at Li Shimin: "Second Brother..."
"Guanyin maidservant, you can't spoil him like this."
"Second brother, what are you fussing about with Xiao Yu'er?" Empress Changsun looked at Li Shimin who was blowing his beard and staring with anger, and laughed in her heart: Second brother doesn't know that he is as childish as Xiao Yu'er now.
Li Shimin said angrily: "You just get used to him."
"Aye, Auntie doesn't like me, does she like you?" Li Yu poked his head out of the arms of Empress Changsun and gave Li Shimin a contemptuous look, "Aye, you are still fighting for favor with me, do you know that?" Shame?"
The despised Li Shimin gritted his teeth angrily: "..." This little bastard is really getting more and more lawless.
Empress Changsun pinched her youngest son's nose, "Don't say that about you, Aye."
Li Yu cooperated with Empress Changsun very much, and nodded obediently: "I see." After speaking, he added another sentence, "I won't make fun of Aye."
Empress Changsun nodded her younger son's forehead, "You..."
Li Shimin was so angry that he didn't want to talk anymore. Sooner or later, he would be pissed to death by this little bastard.
Soon, we arrived at the palace.
As soon as she returned to the palace, Empress Changsun called Imperial Physician Ning and asked him to take Li Yu's pulse again.
Before taking the pulse, Imperial Physician Ning saw that Li Yu's complexion and energy were good, and he was more than half relieved.Afterwards, he took Li Yu's pulse carefully. Compared with last night's pulse, Li Yu's pulse became much calmer and stronger.
"Empress, His Highness King Rui is fine." Imperial Physician Ning did not expect that His Highness King Rui, who was still feverish last night, would become lively at this moment.This would have been impossible a year ago. "Empress, His Royal Highness Rui is much stronger than last year, and after a period of recuperation, he will be as strong and strong as everyone else." Gradually becoming stronger, Physician Ning was full of pride, because he had always been in charge of treating His Royal Highness King Rui.
"If you need any tonic, you can prescribe it." The youngest son has been weak and sickly since birth, and almost died several times, which made the eldest grandson always worry about him.Also, this is also a big heart disease of Empress Changsun.Now knowing that the youngest son will be as healthy as other children in a while, Empress Changsun can finally recover from her heart disease.
"Empress, His Royal Highness King Rui's body does not need tonics, ordinary tonics will do." Sometimes tonics will have the opposite effect, especially for children. "I have already prescribed the medicine for His Royal Highness King Rui to take care of his body, please have a look."
Empress Changsun knew a little bit of medical theory, took the tonic prescription prescribed by Ning Taiyi, took a look at it and found that the medicinal materials on it were indeed very common, but they were very nourishing when combined.
"Just follow your prescription."
"Yes, Empress." Imperial Physician Ning finished speaking, and found that Empress Changsun's complexion was not good. "Empress, your complexion does not look very good. I will take your pulse."
"I'm fine, I don't need to take my pulse." She didn't sleep all night last night, so her complexion looked very bad.
"Empress, you'd better ask me to take your pulse."
"Aniang, you can ask Imperial Physician Ning to take your pulse."
"Okay." Empress Changsun had no choice but to stretch out her wrist and ask Imperial Physician Ning to feel her pulse.
After Imperial Physician Ning took the pulse of Empress Changsun for a while, his face changed suddenly, and there was a look of astonishment in his eyes.
