Datang all-rounder

Chapter 97

Arriving in the palace in a hurry, Wang Ke followed the eunuch who brought him in, turned around all the way, and finally saw Nanping and the three of them.

I saw a large group of people standing in front of a house, Comrade Li Er stood at the front, and beside him was a young man who was about 20 years old. The attire of the two comrades is somewhat similar.

No need to ask, Wang Ke also knows that this is the current crown prince, Li Chengqian, the eldest son of Comrade Li Er. After being suppressed by his father, he was exiled to the wild land in the south, and let his brother Li Zhi take advantage of it.

No, with Wang Ke here, there is nothing to do with Li Zhi. It should be Li Ke who came to pick up this big deal!

Thinking of this, Wang Ke looked around, wanting to see where Li Ke was standing at the moment.

Nan Ping gently pulled Wang Ke's clothes, and asked in a low voice, "What is the general looking at?"

Wang Ke replied: "Let me see where your third brother is."

Nan Ping pointed to the corner of the wall, and Wang Ke turned his head to look. It turned out that the place where Li Ke was standing was a place where the light couldn't reach it. No wonder he didn't see where Li Ke was standing just now.

Wang Ke asked in confusion, "Why is your third brother standing there?"

Nan Ping shook his head and said, "I don't understand either. The third elder brother is always like this. Once he returns to the palace, when everyone is around, he runs to a corner and stays there."

Wang Ke understood that this was entirely due to Li Ke's psychology.In the past, because of my special status, I deliberately hid myself in an inconspicuous corner, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.But now, Wang Ke wants Li Ke to take over the position. If he does this again, it will be difficult for him to have the opportunity to compete with others.

Wang Ke couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. He squeezed Nan Ping's hand and said in a low voice, "I'll go find your third brother." After speaking, he walked towards Li Ke.

When he came to Li Ke, Wang Ke pretended to be unhappy and said, "Why are you running here and here to be a cat? You didn't come over to say hello when you saw me coming. I thought you went somewhere."

Li Ke said with a smile: "It's quiet here, it's good to stay here. I saw you talking with sister Nanping, so I didn't go there, anyway, didn't you come here too!"

Seeing what Li Ke said, Wang Ke could see that he hadn't built up his confidence in front of these people, so he couldn't help but said: "You are now a major general officer of the Tang Dynasty Army, and the director of the Gunpowder Manufacturing Bureau. You are unique among this group of brothers. What else do you have to be afraid of? You are not worse than any of them, you are only better than them. You should stand tall and stand at the forefront. Look at what you look like now , hiding in a dark corner, you are embarrassing your mother and concubine!"

Wang Ke's words were a bit heavy, and Li Ke's face was a little hot when he said it, but he knew that Wang Ke was doing it for his own good, and hoped that he could stand up straight, so that Comrade Li Er could see that he was the best among his sons One of them, the blood of the royal family of the two dynasties flows through his body.

After being said by Wang Ke, Li Ke also wanted to understand that he was no worse than others. He should stand up and let Comrade Li Er see that although his grandfather was the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, his surname was Li, which is The son of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he also wants to serve the Tang Dynasty.

Li Ke looked at Wang Ke with firm eyes, and said word by word: "Brother Wang, thank you. What you said today really made Ke understand. I know what I should do!"

Wang Ke then laughed and said, "Okay, if you know what to do, you can do it. As long as you know, as long as it is your business, I will support you behind you and give you ideas!"

Wang Ke walked back to Nanping and secretly looked at Li Ke to see what he would do.I saw Li Ke tidy up his clothes, walked out from the corner, and stood behind Comrade Li Er.

At this time, perhaps hearing Li Ke's footsteps, the prince turned his head and saw Li Ke walking forward, with a surprised expression in his eyes.

It seems that they all know that on such occasions, Li Ke will always hide alone, and will never stand in the crowd like today, let alone stand behind Comrade Li Er.

The prince turned his head back, and after a while, he couldn't help turning his head again, and said something to Li Ke in a low voice, and Li Ke also replied to him softly, the prince's face immediately became a little ugly.

Because Wang Ke was standing a little far away from them, he couldn't hear what the two of them said, so he could only guess that the crown prince said something ugly to Li Ke, but today Li Ke didn't flinch like in the past, but Pushing the prince back made the prince a little annoyed.

Wang Ke wanted to hear what the two brothers were talking about, so she pulled Nanping and ran forward.

Nan Ping grabbed Wang Ke and asked in a low voice, "Where is the general going?"

Wang Ke said puzzledly: "Go ahead, what's the matter, can't you?"

Nanping is very angry and funny. As a husband, I don’t know whether he really doesn’t understand or pretends not to understand. In this palace, whoever stands in what position is particular Standing there does not mean that he should be standing there), how can he stand where he wants to stand?Nan Ping patiently explained to Wang Ke.

After finishing speaking, Wang Ke realized that the place where he was standing was where the princesses were standing (he is a son-in-law, so he can only stand with the princess. may be staying at home), the front is a place where a group of highnesses can only stand, Comrade Li Er and the prince stand at the front, while the concubines of the palaces are not allowed to come, they can only send a small Girls or eunuchs, standing outside the gate of the courtyard, listening to the news, are not even qualified to enter the courtyard.

Wang Ke was in a dilemma. In this way, it was impossible for him to go forward and listen to what Li Ke and the prince were talking about. A little disappointed expression appeared on his face.

The careful Nan Ping immediately noticed the changes in Wang Ke. Although she didn't understand why Wang Ke always wanted to go forward, she knew that her husband must have deep meanings in doing so.

Nanping thought for a long time, but he didn't come up with any idea, so he said softly to Wang Ke: "General, if you really want to go forward, you can pretend that you are going to salute Father. However, being a concubine can't guarantee that the general will After saluting, can I still stand there?" After speaking, Nan Ping covered his mouth and laughed.

In her opinion, after Wang Ke stepped forward to salute, he would definitely be turned back, and there was no chance to stand there for a while longer.

Wang Ke didn't care so much, and immediately ran to Comrade Li Er.Coming behind Comrade Li Er, he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Empress will be fine. I guess the time has not yet come. As long as the time comes, the princess will be born smoothly."

"Princess?" Comrade Li Er was puzzled when he heard this, and asked Wang Ke: "How do you know that the queen will give birth to a princess?"

Wang Ke was sweating profusely, telling the result without paying attention.If you say too much, you will lose, it is truly a wise saying!
Wang Ke hurriedly replied: "When I got married, I saw the appearance of the empress. From the appearance of the empress at that time, I guessed that the empress would give birth to a beautiful princess."

Now Comrade Li Er became interested, so he asked Wang Ke to tell him how he could tell.

Wang Ke originally wanted to come forward to listen to what the prince and Li Ke had to say, but as soon as he came up, they didn't say a word, instead they all listened attentively to what he said.Now Comrade Li Er wants to talk about it himself, how would he know.If he didn't know this from the history books, how could he know whether the Empress Changsun gave birth to a boy or a girl.

But there is no other way, who told me to talk too much?I had no choice but to tell the so-called experience of how to judge whether a pregnant woman will give birth to a boy or a girl according to the hearsay in the later life, so that the people next to me are interested in hearing it.

After Wang Ke finished speaking, the prince said from the side: "I didn't see it, Mr. Wang can use these low-level tricks, I wonder if Mr. Wang can still play tricks?"

As soon as Wang Ke heard it, he knew that this short-lived prince was dissatisfied with his getting too close to Li Ke on weekdays, and had never had any intersection with him. If you can't get on the table, take the opportunity to satirize yourself.

Wang Ke was no one else, he wanted to support Li Ke to the top, and the prince in front of him was the biggest obstacle for Li Ke to take the top position.Originally, Wang Ke hadn't figured out any way to deal with him. He just wanted to wait for him to fall down naturally according to the development of history.Now he provoked himself first, how could Wang Ke let him go so easily.

Wang Ke squinted at the prince with his eyes, and retorted: "Your Highness, what you said is wrong. Everyone in this world has his own value. We can't look down on him just because his occupation is so low. Isn't that One must have the mind to be a king. To be a king, one must have a mind that looks at the world and embraces the world. People with narrow minds are not competent."

After Wang Ke finished speaking, he peeked at Comrade Li Er and found that Comrade Li Er was lost in thought.But the prince's face turned blue and purple, obviously he was very angry.

Prince Li Chengqian originally wanted to take this opportunity to humiliate Wang Ke.If you want him to know, no matter how close you are to Li Ke, it's useless to put too much effort on Li Ke. Only by relying on him as the prince and the big tree like him can you enjoy the shade comfortably.

Unexpectedly, I just said a few words casually, and was taught a lesson by this Wang Ke, and seeing Comrade Li Er, he actually agreed with his opinion, and Li Chengqian began to feel resentful.He had a bad temper at first, but now he was reprimanded by Wang Ke in front of his father and many younger brothers, he was even more furious, and before he could think about it, he opened his mouth and cursed at Wang Ke.

Wang Ke didn't say a word, listening to him scolding himself, that's what he wanted.

He wanted Comrade Li Er to see how uneducated this successor, who was personally selected by Comrade Li Er, was and how he treated other people's opinions.

On weekdays, when Comrade Li Er made a slight mistake, Wei Zheng would talk to him for a while, calling him direct remonstrance. Some words were much worse than what he said today. They didn't dare to let one go. At most, they told Empress Changsun about their hardships after returning to the harem, and they didn't immediately scold them like Li Chengqian.

Sure enough, Comrade Li Er frowned after hearing Li Chengqian's foul language, obviously dissatisfied with him, Li Chengqian was still swearing non-stop, especially unconsciously.

Comrade Li Er finally couldn't bear it anymore, and yelled at Li Chengqian: "Okay! As the prince, you are so frivolous. You can't examine your own conscience when you directly remonstrate with your subordinates, but you are swearing. In vain. The teachings to you. It really disappoints me."

Without losing the opportunity, Wang Ke said: "Your Majesty, it is really the minister's fault. You shouldn't argue with His Highness the Crown Prince and annoy His Highness the Crown Prince." After speaking, he bowed to Li Chengqian to the end, and kept apologizing.

It was good that Wang Ke didn't speak, but by doing so, he would undoubtedly add fuel to the fire, which made Comrade Li Er even more annoyed. He looked at the prince with both eyes, as if he was about to burst into flames.
