Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Just a few words, and the voice was not loud, but it fell in Zhao Ke's ears like thunder, shaking her head numb, and she couldn't recover for a long time.

His Majesty?

Mother. Mother?

Zhao Ke lowered her head, no one could see her pale face clearly. If it weren't for her strong self-control, she might not even be able to maintain her kneeling position well.

It's not that she didn't know that Li Xin, King of Chu, was His Majesty's most beloved nephew, but before witnessing this with her own eyes, she never expected that Li Xin would be favored to such an extent. It's just opening a restaurant, but it's such a blessing to surprise the emperor and empress to come in person?

Zhao Ke knew that what Li Xin said was to invite the emperor and empress to sit down on the one hand, and on the other hand to praise her for doing a good job without leaving any trace.

God knows how thankful she is that she made the right decision just now, which didn't embarrass Li Xin in front of the emperor and empress.

By the way, although Zhao Ke's husband died at the hands of the emperor, and to some extent, more than half of her current situation can be said to be directly or indirectly caused by the emperor, but she has never hated the emperor.

the reason is simple. Because she is a smart enough person.

From the day she married Qiwang with five surnames, she knew that she was likely to be involved in turmoil in the court and become a victim of some kind in the future.

Now that you are ready, there is no reason to blame others.

Besides, she fully understood what her husband had done in the first place. She also tried to persuade several times, but there was no result.

Although the emperor played a political game, in the final analysis, it was her husband himself who handed the handle to the emperor. Who can blame this? The emperor didn't force others to embezzle relief money and food.

In the end, she knew very well what consequences would be brought to her if she harbored ill will towards the emperor while working under Li Xin.

As long as she thinks of what Li Xin said to her at the beginning, "I hope such a thing will not happen, otherwise your request will be easily satisfied", she will feel a chill down her spine, as if she has glimpsed the sharp point of a dozing tiger. tooth.

She knew that with her fragile throat, there was absolutely no chance of surviving under such fangs, and only by complete surrender could she survive.

In short, regardless of Zhao Ke's complicated inner drama silently going on beside him, Li Xin and Li Shimin and his wife have already sat down talking and laughing.

As soon as Li Shimin sat down, he picked up a delicate bottle of Erguotou on the table, weighed it, and joked: "I'm afraid this little wine is not enough for me." It was rare to go out of the palace once, and he was obviously in a good mood.

Empress Changsun looked at Li Shimin, showing a dissatisfied expression, then glared at Li Xin, signaling Li Xin not to fool around.

Li Xin is a bit difficult to be a man in the middle, and he said tremblingly: "Although I have enough wine here, I still remind your majesty to take care of the dragon's body and don't be greedy."

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin was not displeased when he heard the words. Instead, he laughed, pointed to Li Xin, and said to the eldest grandson: "Maid Guanyin, did you hear that? I told you a long time ago, there must be many more in this kid." Alcohol, deliberately saying that there is no wine is just to attract people, you see, it is true."

As a generation of emperors, although His Majesty Li Er didn't know what hunger marketing was, but relying on his excellent understanding of human nature, he still easily saw through Li Xin's tricks.

Only then did Empress Changsun realize that Li Shimin was just joking, and didn't really mean to get drunk on the first floor of Changsun, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and turned her finger on Li Xin. She smiled and said: "No wonder everyone says that no business is not evil. Xin'er has only been in business for a few days, and she is so cunning."

Li Shimin smiled again: "You are wrong. How did Xin'er become cunning because of business? He has always been so cunning."

Seeing this most honorable couple in the entire Tang Dynasty speak ill of themselves without any scruple, what could Li Xin say? Apart from apologizing, there seems to be nothing else to do, right? After all, it was always difficult to explain things like business strategies to Empress Changsun.

As for Li Shimin's words, don't look at him scolding each "little fox" very vigorously, in fact, he understands the importance of this little trick very well, and he is probably still secretly praising Li Xin's intelligence.

Li Xin was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty and Your Majesty came here on purpose. They didn't come here just to scold me, did they? Didn't you tell me in advance, let me prepare for you to come again?" Come here, if there is any accident, how can I take the responsibility?"

Li Shimin chuckled, and asked back: "How should I act, do I have to report to you in advance?"

Just as Li Xin was about to answer, he heard His Majesty Li Er say in an extremely calm and natural tone: "Under the whole world, is it the land of the king? I am the emperor, so I can't go anywhere? If someone wants to harm me, I will follow up." , I'm afraid he won't dare to make a move!"

Li Xin secretly praised. It can only be said that the domineering spirit of Qiangu Yidi is so extraordinary.
