When it came to Li Xuan, Li Yi had always adhered to the principle of "If you don't ask, I won't tell. If you tell, I'll tell." With Li Xuan's perpetually high curiosity signal, all he had to do was throw a few modern physics textbooks at him, and he would be deeply engrossed in it.
This guy even called her "Qin 'er" just now. It seemed that the strategy of consort was very effective. He couldn't bring him back to that path of no return.
Li Xuan's frustration only lasted for a moment before he put it to the back of his mind. He began to discuss with Li Yi how his idea should be implemented and the various details.
He even took out an intricate drawing from his sleeve. The two of them sat at a table in the corner and discussed in low voices.
The old emperor's banquet was held in Yonghe Palace. However, a small palace couldn't accommodate so many people. To ensure that there was enough space, the palace was filled with short tables that extended all the way to the open space outside the palace.
Those who didn't have the status to enter the palace could only sit in the open space outside the palace. Even so, it was still a great honor for them.
Li Yi could be considered to have a small status now. If he were to be ranked, he would at least be able to occupy a small spot in the palace. At this time, the banquet hadn't officially started and the emperor hadn't arrived yet. Many of the officials were like him and Li Xuan, chatting and laughing in low voices.
With nothing to do, Li Yi's gaze fell on the drawing that Li Xuan had spread on the table. After a moment of shock, he said, "This drawing was drawn by you? I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've improved a lot! "
Although Li Yi, who was from an engineering background, had forgotten all his previous professional knowledge, drawing was a basic ability that he had not lost until now. Especially after studying drawing, his level was several levels higher than before.
The drawings that Li Xuan drew in the past could only be called concept drawings. They were ugly beyond belief. It had only been a few days since they last met, but he was able to draw such a neat drawing that it looked like a work of art. How could this improvement be described with the word "fast"?
Li Xuan laughed dryly and said: "Of course I didn't draw this. Qin 'er is skilled in the art of painting, so I asked her to draw it for me."
Li Yi shook his head. "Qin 'er" and "Qin' er" were so intimate. It was really not easy for His Highness to be enlightened in this aspect. From the perspective of a friend, Li Yi felt very gratified. Finally, he didn't have to worry about his sexual orientation or whether he would have designs on him.
Li Xuan was the Crown Prince and was highly valued by the Emperor, so his seat was naturally not next to Li Yi's. However, a fifth-ranked official next to Li Yi had been kicked off somewhere by Li Xuan, so he naturally occupied the other's seat.
"How much do you know about Qin Yu?" Li Yi casually asked.
Li Xuan furrowed his brows and said: "This person is a complete scoundrel, or perhaps a madman. He does things without any rules, like a mad dog. When he's angry, he doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. If it was just him, naturally no one would be afraid of him, but with the addition of Prime Minister Qin's manor, there aren't many people in the capital who are willing to offend him."
Li Yi asked again: "In the entire capital, is there really no one who can control him?"
Li Xuan shook his head and said: "That's not the case. The problem is that although Qin Yu is arrogant, it's only because he doesn't cultivate morality. He doesn't touch the interests of the nobles. Out of respect for Prime Minister Qin, very few people are willing to meddle in his affairs. On the other hand, Prime Minister Qin is very strict with him. Every time he causes trouble, he will be grounded at home for a period of time. However, after he is released, he is still the same …"
"To tell the truth, when it comes to that mad dog, even I don't want to have anything to do with him." Li Xuan looked at him and said: "However, you don't have to worry. His methods are useless on you. Furthermore, with his personality, he didn't say or do anything just now. It's clear that he doesn't care about you. "
In Li Xuan's view, the person who offended Qin Yu the most last night was himself. The person Qin Yu hated the most was presumably him. This was also the reason why he made a move.
"He didn't do anything." Li Yi smiled and said, "It's just that I slapped him twice just now, knocked out a few of his teeth, and knocked him unconscious …"
Li Xuan looked at him: "…"
…
…
The host of tonight's banquet was, of course, the old Emperor. In reality, as long as it was in the Jing Kingdom, no matter the occasion, he was the only host.
However, tonight, in addition to Emperor Jing who was shining as always, there was another person who was also shining brightly.
It was a middle-aged man with a thin face. He was not tall and was sitting in front of the generals. Even when Emperor Jing praised him in front of all the civil and military officials, he still had a solemn expression on his face. It seemed that he was out of tune with the atmosphere of tonight's banquet.
However, no one thought that he was abnormal because he was the most serious person in the Jing Kingdom. Because he was Xu Dingyuan, the God of War of the Jing Kingdom.
It was also the first time that Li Yi saw this legendary general. However, because he was a little far away, he could only see a silhouette and could not see what he looked like.
Fortunately, he was not curious about the God of War's appearance. Instead, he was more interested in the singing and dancing in the middle of the hall.
The standard of the court musicians and dancers was not just for show. As the king of a country, he definitely wanted to keep the best things in the palace. These entertainment programs were many times more professional than what Li Yi had seen in the brothel.
Li Xuan clearly didn't have the same level of appreciation. At this moment, he was still muttering, "With that madman's personality, you guys won't rest until you're dead. Who knows what that madman will do? Why don't you just kill him secretly?"
Li Xuan turned to look at Li Yi and said, "You have a lot of evil ideas. Think about how to kill him secretly. That guy, once he is dead, everything will be over …"
"Your Highness, who do you want to kill? Do you need my help?" A rough voice came from behind. Li Xuan was shocked and quickly turned his head. When he saw the old man in luxurious clothes standing behind him, he smiled awkwardly and said, "General Xue, you misheard me. I am the supervisor, how could I do that kind of thing …"
"Looks like this old man is getting old. My ears aren't as good." The white-haired old man with a ruddy complexion laughed and said.
"This is General Xue." To cover up his embarrassment, Li Xuan hurriedly introduced him to Li Yi.
He only said this because he believed that Li Yi must have heard of General Xue's name.
If General Xu Dingyuan was the current God of War of the Jing Kingdom, then before him, this title had always belonged to the old man in front of him. As long as it was a citizen of the Jing Kingdom, who had not heard of his name?
Even General Xu was a student taught by him.
"General Xue?" Li Yi was stunned for a moment. When he regained his senses, he immediately stood up and said, "Greetings, Old General Xue!"
"Haha, Old Xue, let's see what you can brag about in the future. What do you mean by the National General that everyone knows in the Jing Kingdom? I have never heard of your name!" Another burst of laughter came from behind. Soon, a few figures walked in front of the three of them.
General Xue, who had spoken earlier, now had a face as black as the bottom of a pot. There was a hint of shame and anger on his face as he stared at Li Yi with his bell-like eyes and said loudly, "Boy, have you really not heard of my name?"
