"Tell me, why did the two of you disturb my sleep? Don't use small matters to brush me off. "
After saying that, Li Shimin put the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep puff, and let out a long breath.
Obviously, he was very angry after being woken up this time and was trying his best to suppress it. If Old Cheng and Yuchi Gong couldn't give a good reason, it wouldn't be easy.
Old Cheng and Yuchi Gong looked at each other. The latter nudged Old Cheng with the tip of his elbow, indicating for him to speak.
Old Cheng glared at Yuchi Gong, but he still took a step forward and stammered, "Your Majesty, I just received news that the people of Chang 'an set off for White Deer College at dawn. Now, White Deer College is surrounded by people. It's probably difficult to go up."
"What did you say?"
Li Shimin was shocked, and the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground. "Why are the people going so early?"
"This …"
Old Cheng spread his hands and smiled bitterly. "I don't know either. When Old Hei and I rushed over, there were still many people on Chang 'an Avenue heading for White Deer College. If we don't leave now, we really won't be able to go up later."
Hearing this, Li Shimin frowned.
It wasn't that he doubted Old Cheng's words, but he couldn't figure out why the people were going so early.
Watching a basketball game? But the sky wasn't completely bright yet.
Ridiculous, really f * cking ridiculous.
"Your Majesty, if we don't leave now, we won't be able to go up."
Yuchi Gong urged from the side.
Li Shimin nodded and shouted outside the door, "Little Guizi, come and undress me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Little Guizi walked in with a group of palace maids in casual clothes.
Little Guizi's mind worked quickly. He had been listening outside the door, so he heard everything clearly.
In a short while, the clothes were changed.
"Prepare the horses and leave the palace."
Li Shimin said to Little Guizi as he walked.
"Your Majesty, the horses have been prepared. The army of women has been waiting outside the palace for a long time."
Little Guizi bowed and said.
Li Shimin nodded and quickly walked out of the palace gate.
Old Cheng and Yuchi Gong followed closely behind.
Sure enough, the army of women had been waiting at the palace gate for a long time.
Li Shimin mounted his horse and galloped towards White Deer College. Everyone followed closely behind.
As soon as he exited the palace, he saw countless commoners walking on the streets in the direction of White Deer College.
This scene made Li Shimin's scalp tingle. He looked at Old Cheng beside him and hurriedly said, "Old Cheng, hurry up and lead the way."
Old Cheng nodded and shouted to the front, "The people in front, get out of the way."
It had to be said that Old Cheng's voice was still effective. When the people saw such a formation, they quickly moved to the side.
Old Cheng squeezed his horse's belly and rushed forward to open the way for Li Shimin.
Only then did the group set off for White Deer College.
Finally, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. However, the scene in front of them made them stop in their tracks.
"Huff …"
Li Shimin reined in his horse and stared at the scene in front of him.
Humans.
There were people all over the mountains and plains.
The entire Xiao Mountain was filled with a dense crowd of people.
There were people carrying loads and baskets. Basically, no one was empty-handed.
These commoners had to bring food to watch a basketball game?
Were they planning to live on Xiao Mountain?
Everyone was stunned.
After a while, Li Shimin finally reacted. He got off his horse and stopped a man who was about to go up the mountain with a load. "Brother, what are you carrying?"
The man stopped and said with a smile, "What? You want to sell my steamed buns? "
Li Shimin shook his head and continued to ask, "Brother, why did you bring so much food up the mountain?"
The man looked at Li Shimin strangely. "You're not from here, right? You don't even know this? Today, President Zhang is holding the opening ceremony of the basketball game. We're all going to watch the opening ceremony and sell some of our things. "
Li Shimin was even more confused when he heard this.
He subconsciously asked, "What does the opening ceremony of the basketball game have to do with you selling things?"
The man glanced at Li Shimin and said proudly, "It's obvious that you don't know how to do business. Today is the opening ceremony. There will definitely be a lot of high-ranking officials and nobles coming. When the time comes, these high-ranking officials and nobles will definitely eat. Although our things aren't very good and we might not be able to sell them, we might be able to sell them if we try our luck."
Hearing this, Li Shimin finally understood.
These commoners had originally planned to use this competition as an opportunity to go up the mountain to do business. It had to be said that the working people were still very smart.
However, with so many people, Xiao Mountain was already full. How could he go up the mountain?
He couldn't chase these commoners away, right?
"Are you going to sell my steamed buns or not?"
The man was a little unhappy.
"Then I'll buy some."
Li Shimin was a little embarrassed. After all, he had been asking the man for so long. He turned to look at Cheng Yaojin. "Old Cheng, give the money to this young man."
After traveling all morning, Old Cheng was already hungry. He quickly took out some copper coins and stuffed them into the man's hand. "I want all your steamed buns."
The man looked at the money in his hand and was instantly overjoyed. He put down the burden in his hand, turned around, and ran up the mountain.
Seeing this, Li Shimin said to Cheng Yaojin, "Old Cheng, Old Yu, eat some steamed buns. Wait for a while and lead the way."
