The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 14
"It seems that your days in the Yiqiu Palace were very pleasant." Li Shimin said with a straight face as he walked.

Hearing Li Shimin's voice, Li Chengqian cried out in his heart.It seems that I will be scolded again today.

Putting down the racket in his hand, he saluted Li Shimin with a smile and said, "Father, you are here. I just don't know how to find my father?"

"What do you want from me? Is it to let me see that you have hired a carpenter to make a playful thing?" Li Shimin said with a straight face.

"Father, how can this be regarded as playing with things and losing one's ambition? My son, this is also to exercise a strong body. As the saying goes, the country is strong when the young are strong, the country is wise if the young are wise, and the country is rich when the young are rich." Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin with an aggrieved face. .

"Could it be that you can train your body well just by doing this? If it's so easy, wouldn't the three armies under my command have already shocked the world?" Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian.

"Father, what is trained in the barracks is fighting skills on the battlefield, but what my son trains is reaction and coping skills." After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he picked up the ping pong ball.

He opened his mouth again and said to Li Shimin: "Although this is just a small ball, its trajectory is not the same."

"When I was fighting with Changsun Chong, I had to pay attention to the direction and dynamics of the ball. I had to judge the correct position at the first time, and then hit the ball back with the fastest reaction."

"As long as I can use this table with ease, my observation and judgment will naturally be greatly improved in the future."

"Your majesty, what the prince said is true. I think this small ball can really exercise eyesight and judgment." Changsun Wuji said to Li Shimin.

"Chang Sun Chong, I don't know what the name of this thing you designed is called?" Li Shimin said to Chang Sun Chong.

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Chang Sun Chong couldn't help but froze in place.He couldn't help but say in his heart: "This is clearly the masterpiece of His Royal Highness, why did it suddenly fall on my head?"

Seeing Chang Sun Chong's puzzled expression, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Father, Chang Sun Chong told my ministers that this is called table tennis."

Li Shimin nodded after hearing this, and reached out to take the ping pong ball from Li Chengqian's hand.After looking at it, he asked, "I didn't expect to weave such a delicate ball out of bamboo."

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Chengqian carefully looked at his ping pong ball.Li Chengqian didn't really care about it unless he looked at it. After looking at it, he realized that it was not made of plastic.

This made Li Chengqian finally let go of his hanging heart, otherwise Li Chengqian really didn't know how to explain how this ping pong ball was made.

Li Shimin nodded after finishing speaking, and said: "Chang Sunchong is credited with inventing table tennis, and now he is named as the prince's servant. From now on, stay by the prince's side."

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji turned around and walked outside Yiqiu Palace.

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to leave, Li Chengqian hurriedly said: "Royal father, you see that I have worked so hard, so there is no need to continue this confinement?"

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin couldn't help standing still.And he said to the eunuch Wang De beside him: "The prince is currently under confinement, you can send someone to carry this ping-pong table to the Ganlu Palace later."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he turned and left Yiqiu Palace.He simply ignored Li Chengqian's sad expression.

Seeing Li Chengqian's sad expression, Changsun Chong asked Li Chengqian: "His Royal Highness, the emperor knows that you made this thing. Why did you press it on my head?"

"Maybe it's my father who thinks that the prince of the Tang Dynasty shouldn't come up with these things. And you are definitely the best one to take the blame." Li Chengqian said with a smile.

However, it can be seen from Li Chengqian's expression that there is a trace of weirdness in Li Chengqian's smile.It seems to be trying to figure out who.

Seeing Li Chengqian's smile, Sun Chong couldn't help but took a step back.I wish I could find an excuse to leave Yiqiu Palace now.

But before Chang Sun Chong opened his mouth to make an excuse, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "I am going to change this Yiqiu Palace, and this design is yours."

After speaking, Li Chengqian picked up a brush and began to draw little by little.After drawing a few drawings, he smiled and said to Zhang Sunchong: "These are all your ideas, give them to Lu Yan now."

Chang Sun Chong accepted the pattern with a helpless expression, his face full of reluctance.

But Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Don't forget, you are the Crown Prince Sheren of my palace now. You must have the awareness to give up others and give up yourself."

Changsun Chong did not expect that Li Chengqian actually interpreted the prince's giving up as giving up himself for others.And he sacrificed himself for him.

But Chang Sun Chong was powerless, he could only smile helplessly, and then walked towards Lu Yan.

Seeing Changsun Chong going to confess to Lu Yan, Li Chengqian said to Xiaorou: "Xiaorou, come and play a game with me. Otherwise, I will be carried away by the emperor later."

……

"His Royal Highness, are we still going to steal chickens tonight?" Xiao Guizi asked Li Chengqian with a bitter expression.

"What should I do if I don't steal the chicken? Do I let Ben Gong eat those boiled vegetables? Or put you on the fire to roast?" Li Chengqian said after glancing at Xiao Guizi.

Hearing that Li Chengqian was going to roast herself, Xiao Guizi was startled.Hastily opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, don't eat me, we'd better eat chicken."

"That's right, let's bring back some beef today. Let Bengong show you off." Li Chengqian said to Xiao Guizi as he walked.

At this time, Xiao Guizi had a helpless expression on his face, and he couldn't help saying to himself: "What's wrong with His Royal Highness, I have never seen him messing around like this before."

Not long after, Li Chengqian and Xiao Guizi came to Shangshi Bureau.But today is different from yesterday, the entire Shangshi Bureau is brightly lit, and many people can still hear what they are talking about.

"His Royal Highness, it seems that he lost the chicken yesterday and is now on guard." Xiao Guizi said to Li Chengqian in a low voice.

"It seems that today's Shangshi Bureau will not work, why don't we change places." Li Chengqian said to Xiao Guizi after thinking about it.

"His Royal Highness, apart from Shangshi Bureau, there is no place to find food in this palace." Xiao Guizi shook his head and said.

"I heard that Emperor Father has several pets, how about we steal one from him today?" Li Chengqian said to Xiao Guizi in a low voice.

Hearing that Li Chengqian was going to steal Li Shimin's pet, this almost scared Xiao Guizi to death.Opening his eyes wide open, he said to Li Chengqian in disbelief: "Your Highness, you actually set your mind on the emperor."

"It doesn't matter so much, as long as there is meat to eat." After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he turned and went to the Ganlu Hall.
