No matter how powerful Sun Wukong was, he couldn't escape from the palm of the Buddha.
In the end, Li Han was still captured.
After being forced to sit down at the table, he became much more well-behaved.
He lowered his head and asked dispiritedly, "Brother Xuan, why are you looking for me?"
Since ancient times, speaking was an art. If it wasn't necessary, very few people would go straight to the point. This was a very impolite behavior.
After all, he couldn't just wait until Li Han had settled down and ask him if he wanted to be the Emperor. I have a throne for you, do you want to consider it?
The first step should be to be polite and get closer to him.
Li Xuan handed over a chicken wing that he had just roasted and asked, "Xiao Han, how are things at the Mathematics Institute recently? Are you busy? Are the professors at the Imperial College safe and sound? I heard that you often go to the Women's Institute recently. Do you have a girl you like? Don't be shy, just say it. Brother Xuan was like you back then …"
The Imperial College's Mathematics Department had been defeated by Li Han fair and square. They had lost face, and the Mathematics Department had been directly merged into the Mathematics Department. These people had been thinking about how to raise their heads again and wanted to make the Mathematics Department independent again. Of course, they had been ruthlessly attacked by Li Han every time.
He had already announced that unless those people could defeat him in a fair and square battle, they would have to obediently become subordinates of the Mathematics Academy.
"There's nothing to worry about those idiots …" Li Han shook his head and suddenly blushed. "Brother Xuan, who did you hear this from? I don't often go to the Women's Institute. It's just a bunch of troublesome girls, what's there to go …"
He actually often went to the Women's Institute. Sister Shouning was as fierce as a tiger cub. She would only become a sheep in front of her teacher. However, He Duanwu, who often played with her, always spoke softly and always gave him delicious food. She was much gentler than Sister Shouning.
Li Xuan only asked casually and didn't continue the topic. He had already said all the pleasantries and now it was time to get to the main topic.
He leaned towards Li Han and asked, "Xiao Han, have you ever thought about being the Emperor?"
Li Han had already brought the chicken wing to his mouth. He was startled when he heard this and asked curiously, "Big Brother Xuan, why do you ask?"
In his heart, the Emperor was his father. The future Emperor would definitely be one of his brothers. It had nothing to do with him.
He only needed to guard the School of Mathematics. When the teacher gave him the position of the dean, he would be the absolute master of the School of Mathematics. Although he had almost achieved this, he was still a man. Who didn't want a proper title?
Li Xuan looked at him and said, "Just tell me if you want to or not."
Li Han stared at him with an aggrieved expression. "Brother Xuan, I'm still a child …"
Li Xuan's face revealed a trace of anxiety as he said, "It's not like I'm asking you to be one right now. I'll let your eldest royal sister keep an eye on it for now. When you grow up …"
Li Han gave it some thought and asked, "But what about King Qi and King Xin's royal brothers?"
"They can go back to where they came from …" Li Xuan waved his hand and asked, "Just tell me, if you were to become the Emperor, would you be willing?"
"I'm not willing."
Li Han replied straightforwardly.
He knew how tired his father was in the past. He didn't even have time to play with him. If he became the Emperor, how would he manage the School of Mathematics? How would he have the time to play with He Duanwu? This was a debt that didn't even need to be calculated.
Coincidentally, he was very good at calculating debts.
"Furthermore …" He looked at Li Xuan and said, "Father is doing fine as the Emperor. Why do you have to ask me …"
"Imperial Father, Imperial Father …" Li Xuan opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't finish his sentence. He snatched the chicken wing from his father's hand, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's fine now. Go and play …"
He lay on the grass and gnawed on the chicken wing as he pondered about life.
His uncle had become his father, Her Highness had become his mother, his father had become his uncle, and his mother had become his aunt …
Damn it, what the hell was going on?
On MIngzhu's side, she should be as distressed as he was …
When Li Yi walked into the Morning Dew Palace with a bowl of egg fried rice and a jar of wine, a figure in the back of the palace was waving a long sword in his hand. The sound of the sword whistled. The figure didn't stop until he put down the bowl. After sitting down, he minded his own business and ate.
Li Yi filled her cup with wine and sat quietly at the side.
"You …"
"I'm fine."
The Eldest Princess's expression was calm. She didn't seem to be affected at all. Li Yi naturally couldn't say what he wanted to say next.
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Actually … if it's a princess, it's not bad. At least, it's much easier than the Princess or the Empress."
The Eldest Princess didn't even raise her head. "What's easier?"
"Life … is much easier. You don't have to worry about the affairs of the court. Just leave it to Li Xuan. " Li Yi looked at her and said, "Don't put all the burdens on your shoulders. It's not your responsibility — it's Li Xuan's."
"You should also have your own life. To be honest, unless it's absolutely necessary, I don't want you to take that step. Once you've taken that step, it's very difficult to take it back."
"I also think it's easier to be a princess."
MIngzhu raised her cup and said, "Drink with me."
Li Yi didn't like to drink, especially this kind of strong wine. Not only because he didn't like the spicy taste, but also because he couldn't hold his liquor well. When he was drunk, it was easy for him to do something out of line, especially in the presence of the opposite sex. If he took advantage of a girl, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.
Of course, the person he was drinking with was the Eldest Princess … the princess should be worried about him.
However, today's situation was special. He might as well risk his life to accompany the princess and get drunk …
"Drink!"
Li Yi filled his cup, clinked his cup with hers, and drank the wine in one gulp.
…
His head hurt.
Li Yi didn't know how many cups he drank yesterday. After a few cups, he couldn't remember what happened after that.
He didn't even know how he came back. After washing his face in the morning, he sat at the dining table. His head was still throbbing.
Fortunately, his butt didn't hurt, which meant that nothing embarrassing happened yesterday.
The old emperor's tricks were unbelievably deep and completely disrupted their plans. They didn't know whether they should be happy or worried. The matter that the three of them had pushed forward with all their might had such an accident. It was really embarrassing.
"Young master, young master …"
Xiao Huan's voice gradually became clearer. Li Yi came back to his senses and tilted his head. Seeing her worried face, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Young master, what's wrong?" The young maidservant's big eyes were full of worry.
Li Yi shook his head, "Nothing."
"But, the piece of rib in your hand is the one that Second Miss just ate …"
Li Yi looked down. No wonder he didn't eat any meat after eating for so long. He thought that the cook had skimped on the ingredients, but it turned out that Miss.Liu had secretly eaten it …
He picked up another piece. Ruyi put down her chopsticks and looked at him worriedly, "Husband, this piece is the one that I …"
The rib that she had eaten was on the table. Why did she have to find an empty plate to put it on? Wasn't that a waste of a plate? The detergent was free …
Li Yi finally found an uneaten rib. Just as he brought it to his mouth, he saw Xiao Huan looking at him curiously, "Young master, do you really not remember what happened yesterday?"
