Chapter 26 Bringing Bad Children
That afternoon, Li Chengqian watched the fish in the pond playing in the water by the pond in the back garden, and suddenly heard a loud sound of footsteps.
Before he could turn his head and ask who was coming, Li Lizhi's sweet voice came.
"Prince Prince, Prince Brother, I'm here, giggle..."
"Lizhi, run slowly... Why are there so many people?" Li Chengqian saw his sister running towards him with short legs, and hurriedly took a few steps to hug her, but saw not only his sister, but also a large group of people following her.
"I've seen the prince's brother!"
"Greetings to the Crown Prince!"
"You guys are..." Li Chengqian also knew these people, all of whom were his own "classmates", his own younger brothers and sisters, and the children of ministers in the court.
"Brother Prince, Sister Lizhi said that you teach her to sing very good songs, and I want to learn them too." Others were a little restrained and dared not speak, but someone didn't know how to do it. She was Li Jing, another sister of Li Chengqian, who was later named "Princess Qinghe".
"You guys are not all here to learn singing, are you?"
Everyone nodded together, making Li Chengqian speechless, "Cheng Chumo, it's okay that they are all children. How old are you? Come and join in the fun?"
"I don't want to come either, but..." Cheng Chumo looked at a little girl beside him and smiled bitterly helplessly.
When Li Chengqian saw, wasn’t the little girl Cheng Yingying, the only daughter of the old hooligan Cheng Zhijie?
Every time he sees this little girl, Li Chengqian can't help but wonder if she is Cheng Zhijie's biological child. How could Cheng Yaojin have such a beautiful little beauty with such a charming face?
"Xiao Yingying, do you also want to learn to sing?"
"Yeah." The little girl lit her little head obediently.
Li Chengqian nodded, looked at the other boys who were about the same age as Cheng Chumo, and said, "You are not here with your younger brothers and sisters, right?"
The answer is yes, which made Li Chengqian wonder, could this Tang Dynasty be like later generations, and the brothers and sisters became stepmothers?
"It's okay to learn, but since you want to learn, you have to persist. You can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days. Can you do it?" The plan that Li Chengqian thought of yesterday was worried that there was no effect. Now these people are here... how could they not teach?
So from this day on, every afternoon after school, almost all the princes and children who went to Hongwenguan would leave the palace very late. This made the servants responsible for picking up these children very strange, and the parents of these children were even more confused.
When asked about these children, they all kept silent and said that they would keep it confidential and could not tell you what they promised.
Cheng Zhijie is the most confused person. In the past, when he saw his sons like rabbits and wolves, he still kept silent when he asked why he had returned home late every day these days, even if he scolded him sternly.
"Xiao Yingying, tell me, are you brothers taking you to do something bad? "The son couldn't ask, so Cheng Zhijie put his hope on his baby daughter.
Unexpectedly, the young girl who has always been well-behaved shook her head and said crisply: "You can't tell your father, the prince said he should keep it secret!"
"Hmm? Prince? What does this matter have to do with the prince?" Cheng Zhijie said in confusion.
"Cough cough..." The Cheng Chumo brothers and others who were standing beside him were speechless when they heard their sister's answer. How could you keep it so confidential? So they quickly coughed twice and reminded her not to say anything.
The little girl also realized that she had missed it, so she hurriedly covered her mouth, "Dad, Yingying didn't say anything about Prince Brother, you heard it wrong!"
Cheng Chumo and his friends almost fell down, this cheating sister...
"Haha, okay, it's my dad who heard it wrong. Go and play!" Cheng Zhijie's eyes turned, looked at his sons, and smiled and stopped asking, but no one knew what he thought in his heart.
...
On this day, it was the 15th National Congress of the Month again. Li Chengqian "washed and dressed up" early in the morning, and with a slight look, he drooped his head and came out of the Tai Chi Palace listlessly.
As time came, he entered the palace in a daze, found his place to sit down.
Everything is the same as before, just like a meeting of the neighborhood committee, and all kinds of trivial matters were reported one by one. His Majesty Li Er was not bothered and discussed and made decisions one by one.
Li Chengqian was always drowsy. If His Majesty Li Er hadn't cast a "concerned" look from time to time, he would have gone to discuss life with Duke Zhou.
"My dear friends, is there anything else?"
"Your Majesty, I have this report!"
"Oh? It's rare. Zhijie actually has something to report."
His Majesty Li Er looked at Cheng Zhijie who stood up with a smile. Somehow he had a bad premonition in his heart and couldn't help but look at Li Chengqian.
I have to say that His Majesty Li Er's premonition was very accurate. Cheng Zhijie stared at Li Chengqian with his eyes and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I want to study the Prince's Book!"
"Huh?" His Majesty Li Er frowned, thinking that this old fairy was about to make trouble again, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, you know that I, Old Cheng, gave birth to several sons, and I didn't give birth to a daughter until a few years ago. I was really afraid of breaking it in my hand, and I was afraid of melting it in my mouth. The baby was so precious. If His Majesty had not built a Hongwenguan, and let us civil and military ministers have to go there to school, how could Old Cheng be willing to let his daughter leave the house?"
"Tell me the point!" His Majesty Li Er glared at Cheng Zhijie and said, "That old man dares to say that the Hongwenguan he set up was "laoshi's thing."
"Don't be anxious, I'm about to say it!" Cheng Zhijie said, "These kids in our family were sent to Hongwenguan to protect their daughter, so no one dared to bully Xiao Yingying. But during this period, Xiao Yingying's return home was suddenly an entire hour late. And until yesterday, it was like this every day."
"What does your daughter have to do with the prince when she returns home late? Just ask your sons!"
"Hey, I'm not angry if I don't say this. Those bastards have already been banned. I don't know when I ask!"
"Huh?" His Majesty Li Er was a little confused. He also knew the relationship between Cheng Zhijie and his sons.
"Later, she asked Xiao Yingying, and she actually said she promised others to keep it confidential!"
