"The King of Shu's invitation?"
During dinner, Li Xuan held a paper raft in his hand. He shook his head and murmured, "He's been targeted so quickly. As expected, no matter where he is, he'll be noticed in the shortest amount of time."
"Forget it, forget it. That guy is likely to be the future Emperor, and he's very vengeful. It's not good to offend him …" He casually put the paper raft aside, clearly not taking this matter to heart.
Offending a prince who could ascend the throne was clearly not a wise decision for Li Yi. However, he himself was not worried. He and the King of Shu did not see eye to eye, but in the worst case, he could just return to Qing 'an Prefecture. The King of Shu would not make a move against a powerful prince over such a small matter.
In the room, other than the servants standing to the left and right, there was only the Crown Prince and his consort eating at the table.
"Husband." When dinner was about to end, the Crown Prince's consort suddenly put down her jade chopsticks and looked up at Li Xuan.
"What's the matter?" Li Xuan looked at her in confusion. Although they were husband and wife in name, the two of them did not speak much, especially during dinner. These days, he had long gotten used to this kind of silence.
"When I was tidying up the study today, I saw a document that my husband dropped. It said that two stones of different sizes fell from the same height and landed at the same time. Is that true?" The Crown Prince's consort looked at Li Xuan with a faint expression of confusion. "Shouldn't the big stone fall first?"
Hearing this, Li Xuan was startled. It seemed that he did not expect the Crown Prince's consort to ask him this question. It turned out that she was not only interested in calligraphy and painting …
Other than the four arts, Li Xuan suddenly discovered another side of the Crown Prince's consort. Inexplicably, his mood improved. He put down his chopsticks and stood up. "Practice is the only way to test the truth. As for what the truth of the matter is, we'll know by doing an experiment."
Walking out of the door, he waved at a guard not far away and said, "Lu Liang, come over here. Pick up two stones and climb up to the roof!"
The guards of the Crown Prince's residence were already familiar with this kind of thing. Throwing stones, leaves, silver, and what kind of effect would satisfy the Crown Prince — this was a piece of cake for them.
"How could this be?" Seeing the two stones fall to the ground at the same time, the crown prince's consort revealed a look of "perfect" disbelief.
Li Xuan held her hand and only let go after bringing her to the spot where the stone landed. He explained with a smile, "Actually, the size of the stone has nothing to do with its size … However, if it's a stone or a leaf, the result will be different. This means that our surroundings are filled with something that I call 'air' …"
Seeing the Crown Princess looking at him with admiration, Li Xuan only felt very carefree in his heart. Other than Li Yi, there was actually someone else who was interested in what he did …
No, Li Yi had never been interested in what he was doing. He was an omniscient pervert …
It was hard to find a confidant in one's life. Li Xuan, who was in an extremely excited state, naturally did not notice the faint smile on the crown prince's consort's face.
"How could those guards fly on a kite?"
Li Xuan furrowed his brows. He was aware of the situation, but he didn't know why. He scratched his head and said, "This problem is rather complicated. I only have some ideas. Let's go to the study room and talk about it …"
…
…
"Hey, hey, hey. Take it easy. If you break your leg or something, I don't want to take care of you for the rest of your life."
Miss.Liu found a new toy. A low slope behind the Viscount's residence became her private territory.
Li Yi stood at the top of the slope and watched speechlessly as she tirelessly repeated the climbing and gliding movements over and over again. He thought to himself that the height of this thing was not even as high as her own Qinggong. How old was she already, and yet she was still playing such childish games.
Ruyi said with a smile, "Don't worry, husband. It's not high here. Even if she really falls from above, it's okay."
Xiao Huan enviously watched Second Miss flying around in the sky like a bird. She wanted to try it, but she could not make up her mind. She was afraid of being high up. The roof was already the highest place she could accept.
Since a few days ago, the weather had begun to warm up. Today, the sun was shining brightly. It was not suitable to stay at home. Of course, it was not suitable to go to the palace to teach. It was definitely a good choice for a family outing.
Li Yi decided to ignore Miss.Liu and concentrate on his barbecue business.
When he came back from the palace yesterday, he "patrolled" the Food Bureau as usual and gained a lot.
Two eggplants and some rare fresh green vegetables. At that time, the manager's face also seemed to turn green … This was not very important.
After watching Miss.Liu fly the kite for a while, the little fatty and Duanwu ran over and watched Li Yi barbecue without blinking. The former swallowed a lot of saliva.
The two old madams were basking in the sun and talking under the grassy slope. There were guards of the two families around them. In fact, there was nothing to be vigilant about. Within a radius of ten miles of this manor, the Viscount's Mansion was the only supreme existence. There would be no blind guy making trouble around the Viscount's Mansion.
Ruyi came over and helped him stir the charcoal fire. She said, "Husband, remember to let Ruyi go with you when you go to the banquet at the King of Shu's Mansion tonight."
Ever since the incident with the crazy monk, everyone began to pay more attention to his safety.
The old madam even transferred the head guard of the Li Mansion here. Of course, with Ruyi and Ruyi there, it did not make much difference whether there were guards or not. However, Ruyi could stay at home and could not always follow him when he went out.
It was fine when Fang was there, but now that Fang had returned to Qing 'an Mansion to take care of the family moving to the capital, there was only Miss.Liu by his side.
Li Yi nodded. He would not joke about his own safety. For the time being, he could only let Miss.Liu follow him. When Fang and the others arrived, things would be much easier.
Although the capital was good, it was not as convenient as when he was in Qing 'an Mansion. Many times, when he encountered something, there was no one around him who could be used. At the same time, he also lacked a key sense of control, which made him resist the capital in his heart.
"Okay, okay, it's almost done, right?"
The aroma hit his nose, and the little fatty almost couldn't hold back his saliva. Li Yi pushed away the fat hand he reached over and said, "If it's not cooked, you will have diarrhea. Go play in the side and I'll call you when it's done."
The little fatty and Duanwu went to observe Miss.Liu again. Li Yi tilted his head and asked Ruyi, "What do you think of what I said last night?"
Ruyi smiled and said, "Wherever husband goes, I will naturally go."
Li Yi nodded and said, "That's good. During this time, I will take care of the matters in the palace as soon as possible. When the weather gets warmer, we will leave."
Not far from the two of them, the little girl, who seemed to be paying attention to the second miss, scratched her head in confusion.
Why did the young miss and the son-in-law never tell her where they were going? Could it be that they were eloping?
Thinking of a terrible possibility, she immediately became nervous.
